My first project! How do you all make your work so crisp? I feel like it looks a bit muddled.
so this is my second ever project but the first one I've completed. I'm very proud of him and I'm gonna attach him to my backpack
I haven’t done custom work in so long I can’t decide what to charge. It’s 10x13in probably took me 10 hours. I’m including the frame. I’m leaning towards $250… does that seem appropriate?
Film is called Hack Your Health: Secrets of Your Gut. Content is only mildly interesting but the felted animations are delightful.
My friend asked me to make her a pineapple but I’m still so new to it I feel like this looks awful😭 idk if I should give it to her
First year making my own ornaments, here's my lil snowman :)
I whipped up this little mood today instead of doing laundry. No regrets.
I felted thus boi recently and am not sure how to do the eyes? I have thought about buttons but dont have any soni cant see how it would look. What else do you recommend?
Hello Felting Community!
I love felt, but I don't love the wool industry. I am wondering if anyone has experience with bamboo/rayon/viscose felt and would be willing to share their source?
I am looking to create gnome style hats with felt if that helps? 🍄🧙♂️
Thank you so much in advance!
In my head I planned to make a cute and simple(!) scene with a snow leopard and a tiger, but before I realised, I started to make it realistic so a 3 hr project becomes 10+ hs of work. I know as far as problems go, this isn’t a bad one to have, but nevertheless it’s a problem. So my question is - how to design cute, simple characters? How do you stop the part of the brain that goes “that doesn’t look like xyz, you must keep working”? How…?

I’m making some needle felted ornaments as presents and wanted to attach a message for the recipient (just a little to/from tag or similar). Does anyone have any ideas for how to do this neatly? So far all I have is a paper tag on the string.
Picture of a prototype for reference!
She says it started out as a wolf, but ended up as more of a honey badger
I am also a needle felting artist (early stages haha) but would love to buy some felting creations as gifts this year. If you sell your wares in the US, lemme see em!
My second time working with wires. I want to give him a little hat. What colour would be best for this little dude?
I made this little creature today for my cat. I stuffed it with catnip, and he seems to love it. I was going for a mouse but I’m getting more bunny now that it’s done. I’m only a week in to my needle felting adventure. This is an improvement from my first “project”. Here’s to continued improvement.
