Why Wool and wool felt?
I enjoy embellishing wall hangings and small quilts etc., however, I'm not very good at embroidery. I signed up to take a monthly embroidery class to hone my skills. I just got the supply list and you need wool scraps and wool felt. Why does the fabric and felt need to be wool. I know wool felt is quite a bit more expensive than craft felt and I hate to buy wool even in fat quarters as I don't know that I will ever use the rest. I sew with cotton fabric. Who would be apt to have wool scraps, garment sewers? I'm not sure if I should cancel the class or not - oh what to do????
