    Today we are carding beautiful Art Batts! This tutorial goes takes you through the basics of carding an Art Batt! Today Marie demonstrates how to make a fun gradient effect on an Art Batt using some of our fairy favorite colors! We are working with 19.5-micron Merino Top and embellishment fibers on our Fancy Kitty Motorized "Little Tom" Drum Carder. The same principles taught in this tutorial can be applied to Manual Drum Carders as well.
    Marie shows multiple methods for feeding fibers onto the Drum Carder, and gives insight and tips on how to get the best results for your custom Carded Art Batts.
    We are so excited to carry Fancy Kitty Drum Carders from She & I Designs. There are various configuration options you can choose for your drum carder, including the drum size, TPI (teeth per inch) and motorization options.
    These fabulous Drum Carders are made in the USA and are the very same Drum Carders used in the Living Felt studio! Create your own custom art batts or roving from wool and various other fibers to use in you felting or spinning! Check out this Unboxing video where we open a Fancy Kitty Wide Manual Drum Carder and show you what comes along with it: • Drum Carder Unboxing: ...

      This one is perfect for spring! I love when complementary colors are used. Orange and Turquoise, for example. Sky backgrounds would be nice too.

      I would love to see a mixture of darker colors that could be used for animals. Not defined lines but a more blended one that can be used for background animals. I would love a small carder but can't afford on a limited income. Are the board ones you hold heavy? I have the hand ones but I'm never happy with the mixture. Marie, you make it look so easy and your choices of colors and textures are "right on". Thanks for always sharing your knowledge in easy to understand descriptions. God bless you, Rodney and all the beautiful fairies for all you do for us.

    This was such a helpful video! I'm still trying to figure out how to make pretty batts, so this was great! Could you maybe show a closeup of that pick sometime that comes with those carders? I'd like to find something similar for my Ashford to get some of the stuck bits of fiber out of it.

    I've been working with your wool and have my greens, yellows and oranges out, citrus colors, they look so pretty I haven't put them away yet because they are so pretty! That might make a beautiful batt. Also shades of blue with a little lavender and purple mixed in.

    So quick and what beautiful results. Loved the blended batt but it would depend on the final use of the batt. Don't see this machine in my immediate future but I can dream. As always your instructions are very much appreciated.

  • @monicadrewry4892
    @monicadrewry4892 Рік тому

    The troubleshooting tips and instructions are helpful and make it look easy. I would like to see how it is used for a project, so maybe a background batt.

    Another question, can I use the cleaning brush that comes with the Ashford carder to pack down the fibers like you did in this video with the brush? Looking it up, it looks like I need the teeth going the other way for burnishing. Do you think the Kitty brand brush would work with my carder?

  • @audreyfarthing4332
    @audreyfarthing4332 Рік тому

    Do you press the burnishing brush or just use its own weight ?
