 Not Difficult!! February 7, 2008
7 out of 7 found this review helpful
I hadn't done ANY needle felting when I accidentally happened upon this wonderful little book. In addition, the first printing of this book was completely in Japanese! In spite of that, I was able to look at the pictures and diagrams and create my first needle felted pup! I love dogs and that's what drew me to it... The negative review about the book is misleading. If you have any kind of craft or art ability, you can do do this! As far as finding supplies, if you have access to a computer and the internet, you can find everything you need. Ebay is an excellent source for fiber and felting needles, and even JoAnn.com offers supplies.
Needle felting is a wonderful, portable craft that will delight you and the friends and family you choose to share it with. Give it a try, but remember...those needles are sharp! Don't look up while poking the wool!

The good:
This book is really cute and the pictures are great. Very Inspirational.
The dog building is not for beginning needle felters. The legs can be tricky.But anyone with a bit of experience will be able to do this quickly. There are so many super cute dogs and I am sure I will be making pups from this book for quite some time.
The not as great:
There are a few items that she uses that a bit hard to find as well and it seems like she only shows her products as an option, which you buy in Yen from her Japanese website. It would have been nice to show alternatives (pipecleaners instead of the wire armatures... beads instead of the glass eyes..) or to have a US website ready with the book. I am a bit hesitant to order minute items when I don't understand the prices.

Very clear instructional book, it gets you hooked quickly! I have really enjoyed teaching myself and others miniature felting.
Adorable pups, incredible design July 25, 2007

I have a little experience in needle felting and wet felting, but I've never attempted anything 3-D like this before. I'm happy to say I just completed my first little fleece dog today, and I think the instructions are just incredible. Not only does the author include step-by-step photos and instructions, but she includes actual-size "diagrams", similar to blueprints, for each dog in the book. The only material I cannot find locally are the eyes, so I made do with ball-tipped sewing pins. I can't wait to make a little companion for my first pup! I love this book. The photography and book design is modern and appealing, also.
 Too complicated! May 12, 2007

This book has nice pictures and it is very well organized but if you don't have experience you will find it very difficult. I decided to return it since I didn't have any previous experience on felting and this book don't help begginers at all.The materials are also very hard to find too, at least in small towns....
