Just watched your tutorial again as I want to make an owl for project I’m working on, great to re-watch, gives so much confidence to go for it!

[@TinaElsworth-tt1pd]

Thank goodness I've found you! I have been felting for 18 months now and NEEDLES. Oh my goodness! everyone tells me what they are star, triangle, sizes. Great. But how do I know what they are, the ones that I've have? You just told me, Thank you! if it wobbles its a fine needle, if it doesn't its a tougher one. NOT hard, self explanatory I hear you say, only if you know the answer. Tar very much chuck xx

I'm happy to see you again, Sandy. This new tutorial is perfect. I can't wait.

Thank you so much. Found my groove again 🥰

Do you need to use 100%wool felt as backing? Can I use Linen backing? Loving this tutorial ❤️

[@thefelthub]

Thanks so much Christine. Linen will work as a backing also craft felt. However, maybe reduce the thickness of the brooch slightly if it's a thin linen. This will prevent over working the fabric. 😊

[@dsteele3517]

@@thefelthubthank you, that’s very useful to know❤

What's your opinion on powerwax to stiffen felt projects?

[@thefelthub]

I have only really used wax for tiny fingers, toes, claws, etc. I try to avoid it, though, because I'm such a messy worker 😁 Have you used it yet?

[@kims5996]

For how much can you sell these? I never know what to ask for my work

[@thefelthub]

Hi Kim
It really depends on your experience and quality of your work, the time spent making it, and your audience. Don't undersell your work, and if you are at a craft fair, take note of the type of customers attending. Some customers will value handmade much more than others and are happy to pay a premium. Pop on Etsy and see what similar items are selling for. Hope this helps 😊
