Needle felted landscape.
Ruth and Rosa are enjoying a beautiful and peaceful spring day in Three Pines.
After quilting for many years, enjoying embroidery for a few, I am learning the art of needle felting, thus expanding my love for all things fibre! This is my 5th and largest piece of work to date..this one is about 11” x 14”.

This is so very cool. I have never heard of needle felting but the result is so interesting. Is the felt challenging to work with? It looks like it produces a wonderful texture.
It is much easier (and more forgiving) than painting with oils or water colours! You start with wisps of wool laid out on some kind of canvas (I use quilt batting) with something behind it that will accept stabs by a special needle) and then adhere the wisps of wool to the backing by stabbing many,many times through the the wool and backing! Very therapeutic!
Marion, your description makes it sound like the perfect craft to include in a murder mystery! 🙂
Stabbing many, many times….I may have to learn how to do some needle felting!
