Hi Sheila, the embellisher is a felting machine, mine is made by janome and has 5 needles that punch fibres into fabric, you don't need thread as this is just like needle felting. I started with a piece of dyed cheesecloth and then i just added different fibres like silks and merino wools that havnt been spun. after that i added some hand embroidery and machine embroidery and then added beads and shells etc. i felted the cheesecloth to a piece of blue felt which all made up the centre of my quilt. I hope i explained this for you. Thankyou for all the kind comments !
