[@clairepatterson1821]

Happy belated 50th birthday! Thank you for all your videos, I know it’s your living but we really appreciate everything you share! Have a very merry Christmas and a restful new year! Ps can’t wait for the workshop details!! Xx

[@feltsbyphilippa]

Thank you so much and I really hope you had a good Christmas! Workshop details will be out in mid January, thanks so much for watching xx

[@Lindasinish]

It's wonderful to hear and see that you are healing well.

[@feltsbyphilippa]

Yes, definitely recovered now, tiny bit sore but not bad at all, thanks so much xx

[@dodosmamma1692]

Happy birthday Philippa, have a fabulous birthday meal when you’re able to chew later. You have some gorgeous gifts, you’re well loved and deserve to be spoiled. 💞💞

[@feltsbyphilippa]

Thank you so much and I really hope you had a good Christmas too! xx

[@andyk1k1]

Happy 50th Philippa xxx hope you get out to celebrate soon xxx Merry Christmas and all the very best for 2024 xxx

[@feltsbyphilippa]

Thank you so much and I really hope you had a good Christmas too! xx

[@juliedeacon5719]

Started needle felting last year for a couple of months. I really enjoyed it. Have just had my left knee totally replaced. (Right knee done in March) so off work for a few months. Besides card making, I really want to get back into needle felting, so thank you for your inspirational videos. Love the wildlife baubles. Thank you x

[@feltsbyphilippa]

Sorry to hear about the operation and I hope you are recovering well. Needle felting (or any craft) can really help keep you busy when you can move much, hope you enjoy it and thanks for watching ❣️ xx

[@valeriecoulthard4776]

Happy birthday Philippa 🥳💐Also good to hear your op is over and you are healing well. I loved watching your woodland baubles, it was relaxing and there is always something new to learn, thank you. Your latest sheep creation is adorable and I love the coat, you make it look so easy but I know it meant so much work for you and so worth it. I wish you and your family a blessed and peaceful Christmas, have a good rest and I look forward seeing your creations for 2024. God bless you and Happy New Year 😊xxxx💐🌻

[@feltsbyphilippa]

Thank you so much, you are too kind and I really hope you had a good Christmas! Happy New Year! xx

[@catherineandrews4755]

Happy 50th birthday. Thank you so much for all your amazing videos. You are a true inspiration. Enjoy your birthday and wishing you a wonderful Christmas and an amazing New year 🎉

[@feltsbyphilippa]

You are so welcome! Thank you so much and I really hope you had a good Christmas too! xx

[@karennoble3795]

I’ve really enjoyed watching your videos. I’ve never needle felted before and as soon as Christmas has passed I’m planning on purchasing the supplies. I’m really looking forward to it. Now that I’m retired I have so much more time. I garden mostly, but I’ve been doing crewel and embroidery work lately and a lot of watercolor painting. Needle felting will be a nice addition. I hope I love it too. Thank you for your inspiration. Happy birthday. 🎈

[@feltsbyphilippa]

Wonderful! I hope you enjoy it and thanks for watching and being here xx

[@dawnmason2378]

Happy 50th. I love Wrendale and Lucy Pittaway 😊. Fabulous vlog once again. Look forward to seeing what you do next year 😊

[@feltsbyphilippa]

Thanks so much Dawn, Happy Christmas and talk next year! xx

[@susanann4171]

I love your videos for the fact that you are showing the public how much work goes into a small business! People don’t realise how hard you work….I have so much respect for small businesses since I’ve been crafting over the last 3 years…I was rubbish at trying to sell my fairy house due to the fact that I became ill and couldn’t put the time and effort in…I’m very envious of yr energy Philippa 😂

[@feltsbyphilippa]

Thank you, yes, I think it's good to try and show it all, the good and the bad but it also gives me lots to video. Sometimes the energy wavers but we keep pushing on! Thanks for watching and being here and have a great new year xx

[@B4Munsey]

Happy 50th! Sincere thanks for such a lovely visit. Well done you.

[@feltsbyphilippa]

Thank you so much 😊

[@sherrybowlin1208]

Happy birthday, Philippa! Glad your surgery went well. I love your Racka sheep, you put so much detail in your makes. Merry Christmas!

[@feltsbyphilippa]

Thank you so much and I really hope you had a good Christmas too! xx

[@eileenprevost5663]

Really love the new sheep! Happy 50th birthday!

[@feltsbyphilippa]

Thank you so much xx

[@emma_s.234]

Your Racka sheep turned out so beautiful! I love how you did its face and eyes. Happy birthday and happy holidays 😊

[@feltsbyphilippa]

Thank you, I am fairly happy with him, have a great Christmas, thanks for watching xx

[@corinnetippit7983]

Happy birthday. Healing from surgery is rough. Enjoy christmas

[@feltsbyphilippa]

Thanks Corinne, pleased it's all done now, have a happy Christmas xx

[@xtraChloenary-Feltmaker]

I hope 2024 will be a fantastic year for you! Enjoy your rest. Looking forward to next years videos!

[@feltsbyphilippa]

Thanks so much Chloe, and the same for you too!! xx

[@dawnlawrence3372]

Happy 50th Pippa and happy Christmas 🎄🎄 glad to hear your op went well. Really enjoyed this video. I love the scarf your step mother made you, beautiful work.

[@feltsbyphilippa]

It's so beautiful and probably took ages, thanks for watching and happy new year xx

[@mclyman-onkka3579]

That scarf is stunning! A belated Happy Birthday!

[@feltsbyphilippa]

Thank you! X

[@thefeltedlemon]

Wishing you a very Happy Birthday Philippa!

[@feltsbyphilippa]

Thank you so much xx

[@peggyschwetz3953]

I have gotten the Makerss advent calendar for 3 years. Steffi did a few projects that,are easy and a mini kit for the day. I love it. I am able to add new fibers to my stash.

[@feltsbyphilippa]

Thanks for sharing!! It's always so useful to know what people think, thanks xx

[@AbqIlona]

I have purchased both the Crafty Kit Company and The Makerrs Advent kits. The CKC kit this year had a needle felting project for each day which was a bit overwhelming. Additionally, I just didn't like some of the projects and didn't want to do them, especially since some of them weren't really Christmasy. I think it's a good value but I don't believe I will purchase it again next year. The Makerrs was a bit nicer in that they gave you different wools to try and there were suggestions for projects as well as Facebook videos. I would probably purchase it again just for the fun daily surprises. What I'm really looking for in an Advent kit is simple Christmas focused projects and I haven't found that. Anyway, as always, I enjoyed your video. I'm glad all went well with your surgery. I hope you and your family had a merry Christmas! Best wishes to you for a healthy and prosperous New Year! I'll be watching your videos. 😊

[@feltsbyphilippa]

Thank you so much for all your feedback, I love hearing about the advent calendars, very interesting. I do think to myself that if I can't find one then I will have to make one myself. Yes, a daily project is too much, Toft (which is crochet) make three or four Christmas pieces over the 25 days so it's a bit easier to keep up. Lots for me to think about and thanks for your comment and for watching, happy new year ! xx

[@jillianscorfna300]

Happy 50th birthday Philippa!! And all the best for this festive season 🎉😊

[@feltsbyphilippa]

Thank you so much and I really hope you had a good Christmas! xx

[@jennykinzz88]

Hi Philipa I so enjoy watching your videos and I’ve learned a lot from you . Now am on this Facebook group for felting and every time some one says “I am a beginner , where do I start?” I link your KZbin account and tell them to give you a watch .. because you beginner videos are just awesome. Thank you 🙏 for your advice and your help . Thanks Jen

[@feltsbyphilippa]

You are so welcome! Thank you so much for recommending me, it really helps the channel and I'm pleased you are enjoying your needle felting journey, take care xx

[@carolinecarpenter]

Happy 50th birthday 🥳 and wishing you and your family a very Merry Christmas, thank you for all the wonderful videos. Glad the op went well.

[@feltsbyphilippa]

Thank you so much and I really hope you had a good Christmas too! xx

[@annwainwright-yr2hh]

Happy birthday Phillipa ❤ I had a big one in July 70 omg! Where did all that time go! I'm glad you are getting over your op😊. I unfortunately had to cancel mine as I have been really poorly with flu for the last 3 weeks. I just love your vlogs and so look forward to them. I love all you do and as I keep saying you are an inspiration to me so keep up the good work sweetheart you are just going from strength to strength and helping sooo many people. Hope you have a good Christmas xxx❤

[@feltsbyphilippa]

Sorry you had to cancel, it's really difficult when you are getting ready for it but unavoidable. I hope it goes well when it goes ahead and thank you so much for your kind words, take care xx

[@nicolamoore4760]

Welcome to the over 50s club Pippa! I hope you had a good birthday, you had some lovely presents. I loved the sheep you made, those horns! I was interested to hear that you are planning some workshops as I am also thinking of doing some. I've put away my needles for a few days over Christmas but they'll be back out again soon! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family! Hopefully speak in the new year ❤

[@feltsbyphilippa]

Exciting! You definitely could, I am going on two workshops before my own so thought it was good training for me! I had a fab 50th, didn't realise you were there too! Have a lovely new year and speak soon xx

😊 I've enjoyed watching your felting and I know I purchased stuff from you. So Happy Birthday. I love the little bubbles. They are so cute. I watched the whole series and I'm gonna start. Just found all my stuff, so hopefully, I'll be able to get a few up. And I'll post a picture a good day in merry christmas

[@feltsbyphilippa]

Thank you so much and I really hope you had a good Christmas too! xx

[@BeverleyMead]

Merry Christmas Pippa, my Christmas morning treat was to watch your vlog while having a lie in and cup of tea in bed this morning! As you know I love Harriet Hare so I'm really looking forward to hearing more about your new tutorial. I have the same Andrea Hunter book so very excited to hear that she does workshops. I did an Ann Smith Art one in beautiful Langholm this year which was a real treat I ended up turning my welt felted piece into a cushion for my living room. Have a wonderful Christmas and very happy New Year x

[@feltsbyphilippa]

Thank you, it's really lovely to know people enjoy my vlog, I think I would do the same if there was another needle felting vlog out there! I will look up Ann Smith, it is quite tricky to find out about all these needle felters individually so it helps when people mention them. Thanks for watching and I hope you had a good Christmas xx

[@suemcdowell9723]

Happy birthday to you! I had one of those last week. I love your sheep. Have a merry Christmas and happy New Year.

[@feltsbyphilippa]

And to you too, thanks for watching xx

[@joeyotten2091]

Happy Birthday!! Happy holidays and happy new year!! I’ve been saving the baubles for this holiday and time off….i have been in a needle felting dry spell since my class…but I’ve been dealing with a new job and a sick cat and family for the holidays so I haven’t had much extra brain power…but your videos always inspire me so I’m looking forward to watching and getting the itch to stab something ;)

[@feltsbyphilippa]

Thank you so much, you have been very busy, there is always so much to do and not enough time to felt! I really hope you had a good Christmas! xx

[@AlisaHof]

Happy belated birthday! I’m so envious of your mad skills! My brain just doesn’t seem to do 3-D, so I’ll have to stick with my felted pillow designs. The mushrooms are great.

I looked around Google and Racka fleece is readily available. A bit costly, but looks just like what you showed us.
