One book I really liked -although it might be more intermediate to advanced- is "Felt to sticth" and another one: Uniquely felt. This last one is thicker and has lots of ideas... Waaaaaaaay better than this complete feltmaking one.<br />FlorcitaMarianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17070699825896478765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4608820972561772862.post-23028906161440711172009-07-15T15:21:41.755+01:002009-07-15T15:21:41.755+01:00Thanks for that, KittyThanks for that, KittyZedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09501183383883177154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4608820972561772862.post-86601894667124114462009-06-20T10:38:52.521+01:002009-06-20T10:38:52.521+01:00I also bought this book, for exactly the same reas...I also bought this book, for exactly the same reasons as you. And, like Karen, I haven't attempted any of the projects, as they don't really explain properly. <br /><br />I can recommend Sara's Texture Crafts site for some how tos, including a nice video tutorial on how to make a felt ball: http://sarastexturecrafts.com/learning/how-to-make/Kitty Ballistichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11894599778981458108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4608820972561772862.post-60447911999740164122009-05-20T11:57:26.681+01:002009-05-20T11:57:26.681+01:00That was lucky, Gina!

Apart from that it is a nice book with some gorgeous projects.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11905074653841182908noreply@blogger.com
