This is my first ever attempt at needle felting. I have no idea what to do with it but it was fun to make. It is about the size of a make up bag.If you are not sure what Needle felting is have a look on You Tube. It is so easy and very very cheap to do..


The front of the bag

Good work. Now you've started are you going carry on? I can see wall hangings, pictures etc perhaps a little beady embellishment too? You can't stop here...... Very Happy

The flowers are so simple. I put a small flower shaped cooky cutter on top of a small washing up sponge. Then pop some of the wool roving into the little cooky cutter and stab away with the felting needle . Great for getting rid of pent up stress

Sweet! I'd never heard about this sort of work until I joined Etsy. I have a little felt purse - I could quite get addicted to the stuff (buying that is). Daisy

Very nice! Thumbs up

I'm keen to have a go at felt beads - do you have a recommended supplier? Might get a few needles too...

Anne.
