This is a small scale felt jewelry course focused on layering techniques to build next level ornamental design inspired by metal jewelry mounting techniques of bezel and prong settings and elaborate bails for hanging. Partial felt will be cut to shape a bezel, the reveal hole to see the encased object adding versatility to the shape of the opening and the object’s color and pattern. The bezel and it’s inner edge can be textured with free-motion stitching for a more textured and detailed finish. For the second pendant, the template of the hollow form encasement will be extended into a hollow tubular form for the hanging bail device. Partial felt will be embedded in this layout to sculpt concave and convex curves using differential shrinkage and circumferential fulling to create dimensional form.
