Sharon of “Crafts n Coffee” is not only sharing their “Needle felted Easter eggs tutorial” with us; she is also sharing the history of felting. “Long before people were spinning, weaving and knitting fibers together, people were making fabric for clothes and shelter by felting fibers to form a dense felt. In fact, the oldest, felted fabric dates back to 6300 B.C.” Today we can make her pastel, needle felted eggs are embellished with polka dots, stripes, flowers, even a little duck. This sweet collection is perfect for novice and experienced needle felters. Thanks Sharon for the needle felting tutorial and the interesting history of felt.
