I've been starting on felt crafts and am a new sewer...I finally found someone who can explain how to tie it off! Thanks so much!

[@WendiGratz]

Do give it another try! Once you get the hang of it stitching on felt is dreamy. :-)

What are you marking with tailor's chalk that you're trying to see while you sew? Sometimes I sew with the freezer paper fused to the pattern piece as a guide - instead of marking anything on the fabric.

What kind of wool felt would you recommend for needle books? 🌸

[@WendiGratz]

I love the wool/rayon blend that Benzie Designs sells, but really any wool blend will wear well.

[@WendiGratz]

Btw, could u do a vid on machine stitching felt? Ive used taylors chalk, but its so difficult to see under that seethru foot.

[@Vyseblues]

This vid has been incredibly useful and very informative. I've always had issues stitching with felt. But after seeing this vid. I have to try it again.
