New Felting Books

I've acquired several new books over the last few weeks:
How We Felt by Carol Juber Cypher
Uniquely Felt by Christine White
Complete Feltmaking by Gilliam Harris
Fabulous Felted Scarves by Chad Alice Hagen and Jorie Johnson
Felt to Stitch by Shelia Smith
Needle Felting by Hand or Machine by Linda Turner Griepentrog and Pauline Wilde Richards
I like them all, but I won't declare a favorite publicly in case any of these authors are reading my blog. Haha.

I will be trying out some new techniques soon, though, including Chris White's ribbon felt, and some nuno collage. My dear hubby gave me a needle felting tool for a Christmas gift so I will be embellishing. A needle felting machine will have to be a long term member of my wish list, as they are pretty expensive. I did not bring any felting projects on our Christmas travels, so I brainstormed instead about what kind of vessels I want to try. I will have to order more batts, or maybe roving. I'd rather use batts.

I bought some Felbi prefelts made by Fibre Fusion. I purchased them from Outback Fibers. I am anxious to try them out.

There are pictures of some of my pieces on the Bluff Country Artists Gallery website.
Also there is a possibility that I will teach at the Textile Camp this summer at Crossings at Carnegie. I am pretty excited about the prospect.
