Felted Silk Gauze (Nuno) @Westmont

TLD Design Center & Gallery @ 26 E Quincy St, Westmont, IL

By using smaller quantities of wool and encouraging the fibers to pass through and bind to Silk Chiffon (referred to as laminating) a unique and surprisingly durable, drape-able felt can be created. This technique is applicable to yardages for use in clothing and hat design work. ...
