Title: Needle felting
Post by: Lesley Silvester on September 25, 2013, 11:03:21 pm

My new needles and holder arrived to day and I just had to have a go (using a cushion as I don't have the pads yet) and it WORKED.


I've now got some pads and some batts ordered so I can get going properly. MOre  :excited: :excited:

I have only lightly dabbled with needle felting but it is very easy to do and doesn't take much effort. Do you have anything specific to make when you get all the bits and pieces you are waiting for?

I've seen some lovely needle felted brooches shaped like flowers and there is a Youtube video showing how to do it so I thought I'd have a go at that first. I'll post some pics when I've done them.
