I have even tried my hand at felting some wool from a jacket I loved that was attacked by a moth. I thought I had gotten rid of the jacket but found it in my scrap bag. I was really excited when I found it as I really loved that jacket. Anyway, thank you again for your help.
A less expensive way is to use Woolies Flannel for the background and applique felted wool to the flannel. I will often use Woolies Flannel on the backs of runners and table mats. Looks much like wool but much less expensive. I prefer 100% wool,but sometimes the budget doesn't allow for it.
