I have been meaning to write about this group on DIY’s Knitting Message Board for a while now and since an active member, BarbK, won the “I (HEART) Felt” book, this is the perfect time.  I once was very active with this group until my Craft Gossip and graphic freelancing keeps my nose to the [...]

I am fairly sure I have not visited Leisure Arts before, but sometimes the entire internet becomes a gigantic blur when you search for a particular art form?  This information filled site covers many different crafts along with felting.  They offer free tutorials on many crafts in the PFD format to print out.   [...]
