Explore the process of creating a collage jacket from "up-cycled" and felted wool sweaters. Whether using favorites that you no longer wear or thrift shop treasures, turn them into a fabulous wearable work of art. Discuss the felting process, interfacing, combining colors and textures, stitch choices, how to insert pockets, closure options and how to achieve a perfect neckline fit. From initial sketches to a finished jacket, see Gail's step-by-step creation of a jacket from four of her mother's favorite sweaters. What a great way to repurpose wool sweaters!
