Best take away is always what does work (best) and what wont work well. I love your videos bc you have an enthusiasm for experimenting and a "try it and see" attitude. Yeah, there are a few hard, fast rules but you encourage people to try things, decide if you like the look and move on. Try things small first to test and then give it a go. I like that attitude and teaching style so much. Thank you for what you do for us.
I have been wet felting for about 18 months now, but I ALWAYS learn new skills from your WWs, Marie! Thanks so much for all you and the faeries do for this community!
I've been needle felting for about 5 months now and learned SO much from your tutorials. I am still too intimidated by wet felting, but I love watching the tutorials! I'm hoping that the more wet felting tutorials I watch, the less intimidated I will get! One day I'll do it!
I've been felting for about 7 months and was apprehensive about wet felting. After 2 months of needle felting my first piece was taken after Marie's Fire Bowl video. I figured what was the worst that could happen? If it was unusable then no biggie, but surely I would learn something and I did. I had a little issue with the locks and viscose not coming together as well I would've liked. Someone in the FB group stated that I may have been to aggressive at the start or what she called a "super felter". I fixed the piece by needle felting the locks down, and tried again. Second time all went well by being super gentle at first. So give it try! No need to fret. It's lots of fun and a good bit of exercise!
following you on instagram, facebook, pintrest and love watching videos on youtube. Thanks for the great instructions!!! Only been needle felting about 3 weeks and I love it!!! Thanks again
I love to see how you made a piece using different art batts. Putting two together with another fiber looked really nice! Thank you again for a wonderful show!
Thank you for the show and tell with the different fabrics. So much nicer to see them moving, compared to static photos on the website. Another good take away for me is to understand what a sander does.
Fab! Been looking forward to another wet felting Woolly Wednesday, lots of refreshed reminders and great to follow! Creativity juices flowing! Thank you all! Xx
Thank you for an fantastic tutorial, as always you make it look so easy :) You are an superb teacher Marie and the fairies always brings us new goodies :)
Just found you. Very interesting a couple of weeks ago I saw a video on soap felting and I want to give it a try. I got some wool from Amazon and soap. I hope I got the right stuff, I wanted to know what you do with the fabric you make. Thank you I need to learn some more from the videos. 👍wish me luck. A new venture I'm turning 81 this month. 👍 yay me. I crochet a lot of hats to donate and I'm teaching myself to knit from watching UA-cam and came across felting. Thank you so much for all the information I love learning new things. 👍🤗
This was fabulous! I think one take away for me was that I could what felt the entire thing using a the palm tool. I need to make either of the one very large or two medium pieces of art felt to cut pattern pieces out of. I'm going to give this a try. Thank you very much! I will be watching this over and over. I love this one
This has been great! I initially told my husband I love needle felting but wet felting does not look fun. You have changed that for me. I can see myself making fabric and sewing it into a bag. Looking forward to what we make from these fabrics
One more thing... Marie, thank you for being so supportive. It is so refreshing to learn and not feel any pressure. You aren't all about selling your product; you believe in it which is absolutely perfect. But you support everyone branching out and learning and developing their art. The fact that you can try first with what you have at home, see if you like it, and then invest. Love it! Thank you!
Today's topic was great! Had so much fun watching it! I don't have any blending tools yet, but your art Batts are gorgeous! I am not on Instagram, so wasn't able to join the contest but wow, congrats to the lucky winners! I did miss the drawings you normally do at the end of the show, though!
I am excited to finally catch a wednesday class. I am a beginner felter and working on my first doll. Super excited to learn more about wet felting, especially nuno felting. I am already addicted!
Love Ann's new hair color..rock on! I can identify with Holly's comment about finishing projects..my daughter says I am a good starter but not such a great finisher! A question regarding palm washboard. When you do the rolling method, you have all the rolls to count..When you use a washboard, how long do you it on each side and back. Thanks for this video!
I am kind of upset about last weeks carding lesson (not really), because now I want to buy a carder. I fell in love with the artful felts and really want to make this wonderful new version of it, but I might need a carder...hmmm.
I missed it! Can you believe I forgot it was Wednesday? Happens a lot these days. So happy to be here for the replay, though. Also happy to hear that using pre felt isn't considered "cheating". I have nothing carded but think I have enough appropriate wool to at least play around and add some texture with maybe locks or nepps. You didn't mention silk hankies, though. Is that something to try? Also wondering if 4mm silk ribbon could be incorporated. Hope to get at least something that will work for the next week's Wooly Wednesday. I'll be starting small. Baby steps... Thanks so much for another great session!
I like the look of carded bats, and wanted to try some as a wet felting design layout. I was thinking that a pre-felt would be a good base to use to compensate for the lack of crossed layers of wool. After seeing you do it, I am so happy to know my plan should work well! Cannot wait to see how your wonderful colors and textures come out from today's felting!! ... And mine!!!
the carder sure speeds up your layout time. So gorgeous!! I thought you always had to lay out crosshatch for some reason. How come with this your fibre was only laid out in one direction? ps I'm excited to start adding some fabrics to my projects. :)
We have a video on this on yt... Top or Sliver (same thing) has all fibers aligned and going in same direction. These may also be called COMBED fbets. Batts and Roving (roving is a long strip of a batt) have the fibers going in multiple directions. These may also be called CARDED fibers. ADDING to the confusion = lots of people and vendors call Top and Sliver Roving... because people are not well informed about the terms... so people call looking for "roving" and we know we need to ask more questions to figure out what they might want to use. These terms only speak to how the Fiber is "prepared" and says nothing of hoarseness or staple length. If you need assistance, call our shop or use the contact us page and we can help 😊
Let us know your favorite take away!
We enjoyed learning that I could that I could felt on a premade piece of felt excellent video all the way through
@@lesleyplage-rohrman5945 make sure to get PREfelt... vs "felt" :)
My favorite take away is that the color pallets are endless with your imagination you can create beautiful fabrics!!!
Best take away is always what does work (best) and what wont work well. I love your videos bc you have an enthusiasm for experimenting and a "try it and see" attitude.

So much GREAT information in this video. Think it’s going to be my “go to” every time I start nuno felting.
This woman is like a fine wine 🍷

Great show today. My take away - have fun with colors and don’t be afraid to experiment!
Love the fact that you add a multiple of different fabrics to your felting..opens up so many possibilities
Oh my gosh! Thank you so much ladies ...;)..you guys made my day
Great tutorial video - as usual! I'm excited to pull out the carder and make some fun art batts to wet felt. Yay!
following you on instagram, facebook, pintrest and love watching videos on youtube. Thanks for the great instructions!!! Only been needle felting about 3 weeks and I love it!!! Thanks again

I have really learned a lot in the past three weeks and excited about next week. Thank u so much

Thank you so much I am totally clueless about this form of felting so excited to learn
Learning so much from all of you♥️ thank you
Wow! So informative - Marie you make this look so easy! Lol - I’ve make so many missteps trying to wetfelt. Thanks so much!
Knocking it out of the park again! As you gals always do!
Good tips on hand felting a very large felt project
HI from Lovina, sorry I missed but watching today while I work! Thank you for these wonderful videos!
I love the magical outcome of wet felting ...and using the embellished carded batts is a great idea 🥰
Fab! Been looking forward to another wet felting Woolly Wednesday, lots of refreshed reminders and great to follow! Creativity juices flowing! Thank you all! Xx
Makes me want to get back to some wet felting! Thank you so much for your always inspiring tutorials!🥰
I’m so glad to hear you can put pause on this and start again later. My hands wouldn’t be able to do this all at once
Thank you for an fantastic tutorial, as always you make it look so easy :) You are an superb teacher Marie and the fairies always brings us new goodies :)
Sorry I missed it ... can’t wait to watch replay
More inspiration to use my blending board to make batts and get some wet felting finished.
It’s a lot of fun! Thank you.

Wishing you lots of fun! We have a few vids on things to make with your wet felted fabric...journal covers. Cards. Pins, magnets, sewing projects ;)

So Glad to hear it, Jenny!
Everyone has such talent..so inspirational
I love all your trays and buckets
I want that shelving rack in the background, it makes me want to felt ! Like a felting playground
that was fun! I have done a few flowers and now I want to try more! love the olive oil soap scent!
This has been great! I initially told my husband I love needle felting but wet felting does not look fun. You have changed that for me. I can see myself making fabric and sewing it into a bag. Looking forward to what we make from these fabrics

Awesome! And we have a vid called HOW TO WET FELT BEADS FAST
Thank you for this video! I've been replaying it over and over doing my first wet felt painting
I love all you fairies. You all make learning so much fun. Your products are so all to felt with. So thank you.
Those blues, wow..
Fantastic details and expressions! Just adorable!

You can set times...just do your best to be even in Duration.
I love the blue shades!
The blue and green batt is beautiful

Yes to hankies and silk ribbon..but test it...some ribbons s are very thick.
@@LivingFelt These are very thin I use for tying tiny doll bows. I could kind of shred the ends, too maybe.

Thank you!
I love your videos 😃
Would you ever use a sander with a resist? If so, how does that work? (Thinking edges slipping)
Yes...but stay off the edge :)
Is there a particular size that we should make for next week's Wooly Wednesday?
A few small ones is a great start
How do you recommend cutting silk fabric...I cut mine with scissors but want a more natural look..can you just tear it?
Yes..you can snip and RIP ... but not the Margilan
What is the difference merino top and bats of roving?

@@mariespaulding8182 Thanks for your response. Can always count on you!!!!

Good morning, I'm a newbie to this beautiful art. I need help. I've not been able to incorporate wool into silk haboti. Please help.
awesome.
Omg, I left a project for over a week...I actually let it dry..but just restarted when I was able...came out ok..
I am trying to wrap my head around the turning thingy...
Hello to everyone from Hot Springs National Park, Arkansas
Do you ever put batting in the back????
Hi I’m from Wisconsin
Hello from Spokane
i want to know how much the suppplies cost.
How do you win something?
Hi all am from wisconsin
How do you know when it’s done rolling (when it’s still wet).
When it's all stuck together and doesn't come apart. Pinch a bit and see if it comes apart or not
What is “bat”
And what date to see it.
If you watch last week's wooly Wednesday, you will see Marie use different methods of making art batts and she explains all of that.
@@tammyrade6210 thank you!
