Thank you for watching. I'm so happy it helped.

I always use 100% wool felt sheets. If you want to experiment and play, you can use the acrylic sheets like they sell at JoAnne's Fabrics or Michaels, they will work. I buy my 100% wool sheets from a supplier in Canada, Fibrecraft.ca, who does ship to the U.S. And note, they are NOT pre-felted wool but wool felt sheets 1.2mm.

Thank you. :-)

Thank you for your kind words. I'm glad you enjoyed it & it gave you confidence. Email me if you have any questions as I love to chat all things wool. Happy felting!

Hello! Thank you for your kind words. So far the set of videos I have on my channel are intended for beginners. I have plans to start recording shorter videos with techniques so people can bring their projects to the next level. I'm researching some other ideas too. I do teach online workshops (on break for the summer) and will be adding some intermediate workshops as well. So lots to come. :-)

Thank you! I appreciate your kind words.

Not an easy answer, but I'll do my best. I store my wool in plastic zip bags, BUT there are people who say it's bad to do this. The reason is wool contains a bit of moisture, so if sealed in a bag and then heated and cooled over and over, it will felt the wool. I store my wool in bags that are in open bins in a closet, away from heat and the sun, and I haven't had a felting problem. So my best recommendation is that if you store in plastic bags, to leave the bag unsealed. And make sure to keep the wool away from a heat source. I hope this helps.

I'm sorry you feel this way. I hope you can find needle felting videos you do enjoy. Take care.

Thank you for watching and for the very nice compliment.

Thank you, I'm glad you found me too. Yes, it is an Echinacea flower. :-)

Thank you. I live in North America so don't know what the shipping is like for items going into Egypt. I know England and Scotland have companies that sell needle felting supplies. Hopefully you could purchase and have items shipped from one of those countries. Maybe other people watching this video could help by replying to this comment.

@@WoollyDoodles may be, I don't know So I will search for it again or may ship it from Europe Thanks for your suggestion 🥰 Nice to meet you

Thank you. I'm glad it helped.

Thank you. 🙂

Thank you. Yes I did. I felted along with paid video lessons through Sarafina Fiber Art.

Thank you for watching and for the nice compliment.

Thank you for watching and for the lovely compliment. I usually scratch the holes with my fingernail to hide them. But if you have larger holes, I would recommend using a finer gauge needle (40 triangle or 40 star) and checking to make sure the wool is connecting to your felt sheet and not loosely hanging on to it. Send me a direct message if you want to send me a photo and I can better help you.

Thank you!

Thank you for the lovely comment.

I'm glad it helped you. I'll have more time to record and edit videos in 2024 and will make sure to record one on backgrounds. Happy felting!

Yes you can, as long as what you're needle felting on to is made with wool or material blended with wool. Happy felting!

Yes you can!

Thank you. :-)

I'm glad I could help. For animals, I recommend pencil sketching the ones you want to felt. It will help you get a great feel for what they look like. If you can sketch them in-person, even better. There will be more videos in the future!

You're welcome. Glad it was helpful for you.

As long as it's made with wool, why not try it! It's no different then needle felting onto a thicker felt sheet. Make sure to send me a photo if you do.

Perfect! I'm so glad it helped!! :-)

Hello - I use a 1.2mm thick 100% wool felt sheet. I'm not sure what you mean by hard & soft, but if I were to guess, you could be talking about a pre-felt sheet that is partially felted and a firmer felt sheet, similar to acrylic felt sheets. I don't use pre-felt for needle felting. It's too squishy for me. But it's great for a base when wet felting. I hope this helps.

You're welcome. HD quality should load up soon. 🙂

Hi Denise - Yes I do. I always use 100% wool felt sheets. I know other fiber artists use other materials as the backing for their felt paintings, but I find felt works the best for me. You can try the acrylic felt sheets, but I find they don't hold the felted wool as well as the wool sheets. I recommend experimenting to find what you like best. If you use a material other then wool, make sure to have a felt sheet behind the material if your wool doesn't stick into the material. Happy felting.

Awwww, thank you!

Thank you. More videos to come. :-D

Thank you for reaching out. I use a variety of needles when needle felting, including multi-needle tools. The single needle I use most is the 38-gauge Star. I also use 36-gauge Triangle & 38-gauge Spiral. In my Clover multi-needle tools, they are 40-gauge Triangle.

I'm so happy you found me!

Wool batting has criss-crossed fibers, and yes, what you make on the drum carder is a batt.

Great to hear! Thank you for letting me know.

That's a great idea! Thanks for sharing.

Glad I could help. I love needle felting and there are always so many questions. I never stop learning.

Thank you so much!

You're welcome. Let me know if you have any questions. :-)

Thank you! I agree. I love needle felting the pansies. Not sure why it hasn't been popular.

Thank you! I have plans to make more over the summer. :-D

You're welcome. Glad you enjoyed it.

Thank you. :-)

Sorry if I used the incorrect terms. Where I live, the Ashford Corriedale is called roving, not top. I've never heard it referred this way until now. I will take note and use the correct terminology in future videos. Thank you and take care.

Thank you. :-)

Glad you enjoyed it
