“If we did all
the things we are capable of doing we would literally astound ourselves."

Thomas Edison
May you reach forward this week into that expanse
that is you, and realize that every dream,
every vision i san invitation, a calling down your own path.
Permit yourself to take one, joyful step at a
time discovering the wonders and magnificence of YOU.
This
is Kira's Amazing
Needle Felted Monster Hat!
Kira is one of our young felting friends,
she is 12; and when we saw her hat, we knew we had to learn more about
this young and creative artist.
Kira graciously
granted us a video interview - led by her Mom Lori. We hope you will
stop by
the Kid's Creativity Corner on the
Felting Friends Blog and read more about Kira,
watch her video and share
some love in the comments!
As
always, we wish you happy felting, and let us know if you have any questions
or need any support by emailing us at customer
service@livingfelt.com
Leisa of Westbrook, Connecticut share this sweet pooch with us!
Visit her Etsy shop...we love the "shmoo"
"Hi Marie and Everyone at Living
Felt!
Here's a little chihuahua I made with
your Merino-Cross
Fast Felting Batts in Sand.
She's 5" tall by 3" wide at her hips and is 3.75"
wide at her ears.
She's wearing a silver and Swarovski Crystal collar and she's
seated on a pink satin
and organza ribbon dog blanket which I have hand sewn.
She was a lot of fun to make and I even considered keeping her
but did end up selling her.
I also have a shop at http://www.etsy.com/shop/ArtFXDesigns
where I
sell items I've made with your wonderful wools.
Thanks and happy felting!"

"My husband and I visited your
shop ...several weeks ago and here is what resulted!
It is wet felted with wool/silk needlepoint yarn and mohair locks
needle felted on as accents.
It can be used as a purse but I am going to use it as an iPad
case."
Cheers, Lee
