When you purchase a book, you never know what you are going to get unless you can locate numerous reviews. Most of the time Amazon has good reviews and you can get the flavor of a book and if it is one you want for yourself.
Needle Felting Artful Fashion by
, Judy Jacobs and Kay Kaduce offers you fun and different ways to needle felt projects. This book is filled with informational pictures, templates, resources to get the materials you will need for each needle felting project.
This book shows you how to take readymade items and turn them into diva fashions. I love the idea of taking a readymade baby pillow and a bear and doing something personal for a baby shower or a new baby. “pictured” Don’t forget the pre-teens and teens going off to college. You can needle felt their school emblems or teams onto jackets, jeans, bedding, tees and whatever. Turn that plain sweater into a designer wearable that everyone will ask about. Create lavish embellishments on purses, slippers, hats, purses, jewelry and wall hanging.
I want to give this book a thumb- up and think you might want to pick it up for your felting library.
Linda,
Thank you so much for your endorsement of the book! If you liked this one, check the other 2 we wrote immediately after this one.
Leisure Arts also published The Big Book of Needle Felting, and Sterling published our 3rd book titled Easy Needle Felting.
Are you a felter? How did you find us? Thanks again, Judy
Judy,
I’d like to see more books around “creating” fashion with needlefelted fabric vs just applying a embellishment via needlefelting. For instance, creating a scarf with just needlefelting, aka like nuno but with the embellisher. Also it seems everything is with roving or putting a embellishment on a sweater.
How about “creating” with recycled fabrics and no roving? Soft flowing garments with the embellisher. That’s what I’d like to see a book about.
Check out Amazon, I think there are a couple 🙂
