How to Get A Smooth Needle Felted Finish
7 Must-Know Embroidery Tips for Beginners
Simple, all you need to get started. Very clear instructions with images for those like me who can't facing reading pages of text, carefully packaged and delivered...all round a good bit of a fun even if my finished product doesn't look quite as elegant if was also just right for getting started, not too basic nor complicated
Great quality. Instructions were very clear.
Perfect for the beginner, this was the 1st I had done. Everything is included. Super fast shipping from the UK to the USA. The flattened top shell was my own goof up. Another time I will use the scraps and build up the center for a more rounded shape, and THEN I stab it into shape. But, as I said, that was my own goof up. I think that it gives him character and personality though. I highly suggest that you give them a try. Beautiful picture instructions. Great for beginners or advanced needle felters a like.
Fab kit. Can’t wait to start felting
Lovely kit. Arrived nicely wrapped again. I love these kits so much.
Literally came next day! So quick
Super fast delivery! My sister will love it!
Haven’t completed but very excited about purchase.
Fast delivery, good quality product and easy to follow instructions.
Great product. Bought as a gift.
Tortoise Needle Felting Kit
Very cute kit as a Christmas present. It was loved by the person and had loads of information
Bought this kit to make for my tortoise mad daughter. Beautifully packaged with lovely quality wool, the clear instructions meant that a happy afternoon was spent fashioning ‘Timmy’. I even had enough wool left over to make him a rather fetching top hat (at daughter’ request!!). Will definitely be looking at further purchases. Thank you.
Fabulous kit. Never needle felted before but found the instructions extremely easy to follow and thoroughly enjoyed making him. Highly recommend.
