good resource book June 1, 2007 22 out of 22 found this review helpful
This book presents a nice, comprehensive overview of felting - both wet and dry - The pictures are beautiful and each step in the process is clearly explained. I was not terribly impressed with the projects included, however - kind of basic and a little boring. But, still worth owning if you intend to explore this art form.
Great first time projects May 25, 2007 13 out of 15 found this review helpful
Have tried a couple of these projects and they are great for a first time felter. Had a bit of a problem finding "roaving" in my area, but it is not expensive once you find it.
Sounds easy, haven't done a project yet May 14, 2007 7 out of 12 found this review helpful
Very nice book with lots of good info. Of course all projects are not my style, but am able to take something of interest from each one. a good buy
Finally! May 4, 2007 60 out of 60 found this review helpful
I own 8 felting books but if I had to give up 6 of them this is one of the keepers. Finally here is a book that doesn't insult one's aesthetic with cutesy projects that seem more suited to preteens. Instead the author showcases great designs with a very clear idea from start to finish of what you need for a project, what will be entailed to finish it and great photos all along the way. The basic technique given at the beginning will serve you through out the book and should be memorized - or copied, enlarged and put up on your wall until you have it committed to memory. The list of resources is fantastic - except there is no "Balfour Farm" as is listed. Another great felting book to have is "Feltmaking and Wool Magic" by Jorie Johnson, which is much more comprehensive but not as user friendly as the photos are small.
BINGO!! What a BEAUTIFUL Book This Is!! April 20, 2007 43 out of 43 found this review helpful
I purchased this book not really knowing what to expect and what I got, to my surprise, was awesome! It's a well written book, beautifully photographed, with very nice inspiring projects. Super colorful! Great variety!! Ideal for all skill levels and the projects are categorized in the book that way. I always find that very helpful when trying to determine which project to attempt first. What a great book!! It's a keeper in my library! Not a moments regret here at all!
