“If we
really love ourselves, everything in our life works.”

Louise L. Hay
You are perfect, just as you are, and you are beautiful
in your momentum towards growth and change. Your art
is a gift from your soul to all of us and to yourself,
let it flow freely from you and feel the joys of just being you.
We appreciate you. Thank you for sharing your inspired ideas with
us all.
Sharen Johnson shares another fun and functional felt creation!
"Introducing
Timothy Thomas Turkey otherwise known as Tim-Tom was needle felted with
a structure first
of Living Felt's super new Merino cross-core wool. It felts so nicely
and really enables me to add fine details.
After constructing the base in core wool I use dyed Merino top wool for
color and extra details.
I generally prefer to use solid dyed colors and blend them as I go.
Tim-Tom
is a pincushion with an added feature. He holds a retractable tape measure
inside
and by pulling the bottom layer of tail feathers you can unfurl the tape.
Retracting it involves pushing a button hidden under his wing feathers.
I have been listing my specialty pincushion/tape measure novelties on
www.sharryJo.etsy.com
in the past and they have been well received so I am excited to be back
to felting once again.
I am so grateful for Living Felt's quality products. They bring out the
creative gene in me."

LIVING FELT Brand CW-1
Core Wool
for Needle Felting
You will absolutely love how quickly and easily this merino-cross core
wool needle felts!
The fiber has the perfect crimp and provide a wonderful base for your
needle felting projects.
Many people use this core wool to create base shapes and then overlay
dyed or bright white wool on top because it is so affordable.
This wool DOES contain vegetable matter and does have a natural wooly
scent.
It is not meant as a clean top surface wool.

"This is my first attempt at a needle-felted animal. It's a baby
albino squirrel.
I used only wool and a needle to make her. There are no wires inside.
Prior to the baby squirrel, I made a few pairs of slippers.
Those were wet-felted. I'm really enjoying this new medium. What fun!
All
of the wool that I used is from Living Felt, of course!"

"I
wanted to tell you how inspiring your web site is. I am new to wet felting
and have found the whole process endlessly fascinating. Love seeing
other peoples' projects for ideas.
Attached are 2 photos of a wet felted handbag
that I just completed.
The handbag is made primarily from Merino
Cross Batt and Corriedale
that I bought from Living Felt. Love your products and customer service!"
