On felting??

[mrsmiz]

Ok, Lion brand has this pattern for a really cute bunny.

I was going to try to felt it...I was wonderign if anyone had any advice for felting an odd shape? I have to stuff it to finish it before felting it. i just tore up somemuslim and used that for stuffing. If I put it in the washer...felting it that way, will it all dry well? the stuffing and all? woudl you sew it before felting? I havent' really felted anything mre than a swatch before. I was hoping someone more experienced might be able to help me!

thanks! heather

That will be one tiny bunny after felting! I suggest putting it in a lingerie bag before felting. It will take quite a while to dry especially if you are in a humid climate. You could put it in the dryer as well, but it may felt a little more. If you don't mind that then that is probably what I would do at least for a little bit.
