Complete Starter Guide to Needle Felting: Enchanted Forest: Fairies, Gnomes, Unicorns, and Other Woodland Friends by Claudia Marie Lenart
inspiring
medium-paced
5.0
What a BEAUTIFUL book! I saw it and immediately had to give it a read and look at the gorgeous photos.
Needle felting is something that I have tried before and thought that this book targeting beginners was perfect to continue my learning. It taught me right from the very first page, the origins of the craft and the wool industry. It has sections that outline the wool and fibres element and even discusses which parts of the wool are what and how they look. The felting surfaces, needles and holders and other supplies, sections were very informative and easy to read.
The projects. Oh my word, the projects! They ranged from a very easy to do cookie cutter garlands to customisable babies, unicorns, flowers and trees and birds, rabbits and fairies. Some even in finger puppet form! I'm going to be spending quite a lot of time with this book and the gorgeous projects.
Each project includes an introduction, list of supplies, and step by step instructions which all have photographs and are explained well and easy to follow. Tips for best use are also there too. The book is generously inclusive of templates for you to get to work straight away as well.
All in all a 5-star read from me and a definite addition to a couple of friends Christmas present lists!
Thank you to Netgalley, Claudia Lenart and Fox Chapel Publishing/Landauer Publishing for a copy to review. My opinions are all my own.
