i love felt



It seems that this past year I've been on a felt craze. With that said I'm pleased to announce my owl line that will be sold on my etsy store. These little guys are made out of felt and then sewn together. I'm still experimenting, long legs, short legs, wrapped wire/not wrapped...button eyes, showing stitching..vs. not.....etc. Doing this has peeked my interest in needle felting like what Laura Alane does with her owls..etc. I love her stuff and by no means do i want to attempt to rip her style off. I'm just taking this idea of an owl..something i've been drawing for the last 5 years and make it 3d.
I've also been working pretty hard at making these felt needle books. They're a great way to put all your sewing notions in one place. They have four felt pages you can pin your needles and pins to and then a pocket in back to put everything else.

as always I would love to hear feedback!
