Needle Felting





The top picture is a piece that I needle felted on my "Embellisher". I started with some felt and added some hand painted silk. I then needle felted some different wools, more hand painted silk, yarns and scrim. After finishing the felting I cut the large piece apart and made two postcards from it. The bottom pictures are the finished postcards to which I have added stitching and beads.

How do you like your embellisher? Looks like you had fun. Nice work, Jacq.

I would never in a zillion years laid all that down there. But your finished work is gorgeous. The hand stitching and bead detail add extra touches. It reminds me of the European artists' work. i guess i will keep doing it by hand.
