Thank you for this tutorial. They are all so clear to see, hear, and follow. As always, so appreciated!

[@LivingFelt]

We're happy to hear it and THANK YOU for your kind feedback 😊

[@monicadrewry4892]

This tutorial has so many fabulous tips! My favorites were the floral tape over the armature, holding onto the wire end to prevent it from flying and then having to stop the project to search for it 🤪, and sandwiching the fiber in the card to create an edge. And, I need to stop in to get the new tool! Thanks for another fantastic tutorial - they are so cute!

[@LivingFelt]

Thanks so much for your feedback, Monica! Happy Felting! 😁

[@DonnaMundinger]

What a cute project, Marie! Lots of great tips and I love how you've mounted them. After the Valentine couple I can see doing them for many occasions and seasons. 😁

[@LivingFelt]

We so look forward to seeing yours, Donna ♡♡

[@tammymutton5924]

Love the tip about using the card to protect your fingers when making the tunic edge!

[@LivingFelt]

Definitely, Tammy! Its a finger saver!

[@melissawagner-wu1980]

[@JulesTools23]

Oh my goodness Marie, these are adorable! I was an avid viewer and loved creating your dolls w/o face details the most! 4yrs ago, I had a sudden illness and am happy to have survived! 2 yrs after, I was able to recreate a rendition of your gnome Santa’s, using a ndl felted triangle for his head/beard/hat etc.,w/a yarn as a hanger for a tree decoration. I am def going to try and felt this cute couple as a gift for Christmas 2025! You’re a wonderful teacher and never cease to inspire, Ty for all you do! Much love xo, Jules💜🌻👩🏼‍🎨
