Needle Felting
#1
Here I sit all ready to do some hand needle felting and just sat down to do my first one, and wham, my needle breaks. Ugh!
Now I have to find something else to work on, until I can get to the store tomorrow to buy more felting needles. Unless, there is something else I can use to felt with. Anyone else run into this problem. (I guess I was hoping there was something else I might have laying around the house I could use. (you know like if you are out of buttermilk you can some with milk and vinegar)
I know, wishful thinking, huh.

My explanation: needle felting is when you fuse wool to wool. I have attached a picture of the pincushions that I make, I needle felt the wool flowers to the felted wool base.
Needle felting locks the wool fibers together. They also have machines that looks like a sewing machine that needle felts, I believe you can use it to make scarves made out of just felted threads, you can use it on all kinds of projects.
Hope that helps.
