Thank you so much! Met you yesterday at Maker Central. Never ever felted before, never even thought about it till yesterday infact. Looking for something to do I decided for the few quid it was worth a punt! Your videos are very informative and I’ve managed to felt this hedgehog myself… ok mine does look like a polar bear with a wig but I did it thank you x

Ive just started needle felting and just love your videos. thank you for sharing, but one area I am stuck on is knowing how firm the felting needs to be at particular stages, for example when you are attaching the face to the head? should the head be marshmallow squidgy ( love that term) or firmer,
@TheCraftingChez 4 ай бұрын
Hi, thanks for getting in touch! With firmness generally everyone is different with some people felting really firmly and others super squishy. For me, if I'm adding something, like a face or arms etc, I'll felt a bit more firmly. You should be able to add without flattening or completely misshaping what you've already felted. If you start adding and you find the head starts to indent stop. Go over the whole thing again so that it stays in scale and then try again. When adding features you can also build up slowly using layers of wool and not stabbing too deeply. This helps if you don't want to felt too firmly. Hope this helps. Any questions though please let me know x

@TheCraftingChez 9 ай бұрын
Sorry for my earlier very random comment! I was totally thinking about the bunny when this message popped up and started picturing a bunny with a scorpion tail, and then antlers. A stinger on the bee makes much more sense! 😂 I'd probably use a glue gun to make a stinger, wait for the glue to get hot. touch it to the bees bum and pull the gun away without releasing any more glue. It should stretch leaving a fine strand behind. Use scissors once it's cooled to cut to length. You might want to experimenting a bit on something like a random bit of cardboard first though before trying it on your bee 😀

What a cute Mr/Mrs fox, its really lovely. You should definitely have more subs than you have and wow your paintings are absolutely stunning. I can’t draw for toffee which is why I love needle felting so much, I was always great at clay sculpture when I was at school but that was over 30 years ago so when I got into wool sculpture I instantly loved it and picked it up really fast after that and the first thing I did was a fox, then another,then another because I was always told to make 3 of that one animal and you’ll become good on the last one and it’s true, in my case anyway. 😂 I struggle a lot with arthritis in my hands so it takes me a long time to make anything of significance these days, but it’s my hobby and I love it. I usually give them away or give them to charities to auction off to raise money for them. Thanks for sharing Mr/Mrs fox with us.
@TheCraftingChez 2 жыл бұрын
I got hooked too when I first tried felting too, and its always made me think about molding clay, just one stab at a time. I know what you mean about making 3 to get good. The first fox I made before the video looked like a corgi 😄. I'm sorry to hear about your arthritis, my nan had it terribly in her hands before she passed but she loved to paint and like you didn't let it stop her. I'm not sure if you've heard of it but there's stuff called polymorph, it's polythene pellets that melt in hot water and can be shaped. It becomes solid again when it cools down and can be used to make handles bigger and mold them to your hand, I got some originally to make nans paintbrushes easier to hold. I don't know if it will help but it might be worth a try for your felting needle holders. Thank you for your kind words and thanks for watching 😊

Thank you! I also use this technique for any of the larger heads I make, it's great for horses if you change the base shape a bit. I've also used it to make bears and wolves, just add a thicker cover of wool fibre and then cover in fur. It's a great way to use up that leftover foam and saves so much wool and time!

@TheCraftingChez 2 жыл бұрын
Thank you, I really appreciate that! Yes, you can felt while it's still wet, I like to tumble dry first thought as this helps to shrink everything together. If you're decorating with different colours needle felting after its shrunk will give you sharper details. If you want a softer finish you can needle felt onto the wet doll and tumble dry after. If you're not going to tumble dry just be sure it dries fully, otherwise the wool can go a bit musty. It might be worth wiping down your needle too if felting wet to prevent rusting. Hope this helps. Happy felting! x
