The technique on my new embellisher
isn't going very smooth yet
but I like it
(though it's still a lot of trial and error)
tiny clippings of felt will be incorporated
in the needle felted piece
Sara Lechner suggested synthetic felt and burn it with a soldering iron,
but I have only 100% woolen felt
(that's what I like best)
and I used a very old "buttonhole scissors"
that was once my mother's.
(Ohhhh .... I admire Rob Ryan's paper cutouts even móre now)
Here it is :
with the screw you can even adjust the length of the cut.
I started with the rusty squirrel
and let the two angels wait a bit
(there is still time for them)
Squirrel finished
(with magic thread in place)
