OOh, I love needle felting–made super cute Halloween pumpkins last fall. I’m a rank beginner, but it was fun!
May 19th, 2009 at 9:11 pm
How gorgeous! I’d love to give it a go!!
May 19th, 2009 at 9:14 pm
My very first and only felting was a bead for a necklace that was gonna be a mothers day gift. My fifth grade teacher showed us how to do it. I would love to relearn and do more!
May 19th, 2009 at 9:42 pm
I made beads before for a project in school but I failed. Miserably. :*(
May 19th, 2009 at 9:54 pm
I’ve only just started felting so I made beads but I love the way they came out and hope to do more!

I knit and felted a tote bag that I’ve used for all kinds of toting – mostly papers for work. It’s aqua, teal and a soft yelow-green and I love it. The book looks very inspirational. Please count me in for the give away.

I love making cute flower brooches, and other jewelry~! It’s so cute~! <3
May 19th, 2009 at 11:17 pm
I can’t wait to try this. I can see earrings to match every outfit.
May 19th, 2009 at 11:39 pm
These are just great! My sister just started felting and has taught me a little. She is going to LOVE these! Something I can show her.
May 20th, 2009 at 1:15 am
love this! I have made felted beads, for the acorn project… but have yet to try
jewelry out.
May 20th, 2009 at 1:35 am
Beautiful! I like to make jewelry from felted pearls. Love the material.

How cool is this!! I’ll have to squeeze a few extra hours out of the day so I can go play with fiber and water, it just look so fun!
My favorite felted item(s) that I have made are slippers. I even made myself two identical pairs so that I’d always have a backup (or replacement) pair if necessary.
May 20th, 2009 at 4:48 am
I knit and felted a pair of slipper/boots. And embellished it with a needle-felted little owl. They are so warm and comfy and if I do say so myself, so cute too! I’m quite glad I chose them for a project for myself. That book looks awesome….great earrings.

Feltastic!
May 20th, 2009 at 5:56 am
Nothing beats felted slippers for the winter – we’re just getting colder here in New Zealand and it’s jsut the ticket! I have already worn out my first pair. Not really creative or different, but needed! :)
May 20th, 2009 at 7:53 am
oooh! put my name in the hat!
May 20th, 2009 at 7:59 am
Ooh this is my first time on this site! I love it! I would love this book!
May 20th, 2009 at 8:01 am
the giveaway is for a project kit not for the book!
May 20th, 2009 at 8:54 am
Primarily a wet-felter I love making vessels by felting over a ball but recently made my first rug and equally love that process. Any new projects welcomed
May 20th, 2009 at 9:04 am
What fun to do this summer!
May 20th, 2009 at 9:17 am
I made felted fortune cookies and wrote my own fortunes to give to my friends for Valentine’s day
May 20th, 2009 at 9:18 am
never tried felting before, what a cute project to start with.
May 20th, 2009 at 9:54 am
My very best felt project, was when I made felt ball birds with toddlers in the day nursery I worked at. Those little children were so excited about the whole process of forming the birds with soap and water. Later on we phtographed the beautiful birds. And when it was all done, we had a little reception for the parents…
May 20th, 2009 at 9:56 am
I would love a project kit – and my favorite thing to make out of felt is felt food for my kiddos to use at teatime :)
May 20th, 2009 at 10:15 am
My favorite felt project has to be the felted journal covers I make for gift exchanges (seen at http://blog.designedlykristi.com/?p=680 and http://blog.designedlykristi.com/?p=712).
May 20th, 2009 at 10:33 am
I would love to make the earrings! I’ve made a felted sweater for my dog.
May 20th, 2009 at 10:42 am
I haven’t made anything from the book yet, but love the earrings.
May 20th, 2009 at 10:44 am
I went through a big felted bag phase. I love mixing in some novelty yarn to change the way it felted. Hm. I should get back to that, I think.
May 20th, 2009 at 10:44 am
I love the necklace on the cover! I’ve never made anything from felt before.
May 20th, 2009 at 10:47 am
I have never tried this craft but having a free kit would make it possible to try felting to see if it would be something I want to pursue.
May 20th, 2009 at 10:53 am
Oh my goodness, would I love a kit! I just love this book-I have been looking at some of the previews and it’s lovely!
May 20th, 2009 at 11:39 am
this book looks so fabulous!
i’ve only attempted felting a few times, and thus far i’ve failed miserably! i’ve made some very fun stuff using fulled sweaters though, like pillows and scarves. i love working with them!
May 20th, 2009 at 12:28 pm
I like making needlebooks out of wool felt. This book would be great for ideas of other ways to use felt.
May 20th, 2009 at 12:47 pm
mememe! please?
May 20th, 2009 at 12:48 pm
oh, it would help to finish reading the post. I needlefelted a circus mouse for the coraline mystery box swap. you can see him at my flickr. http://www.flickr.com/photos/86279257@N00/3388104100/in/set-72157615814520186/

This looks like a fun book. Perfect for relaxing in Spring and Summer.

I have ever only made felty beads and enjoyed it a lot plus I love to look at creations of others and I would like to give it a go beyond the bead:) (plus the book..as far as i can tell looks so nice that I already put it on my “Wanted” list:) )
Thank you for the giveaway!
May 20th, 2009 at 1:21 pm
I’ve got a whole bunch of Christmas ornaments — wet-felted balls embellished with needle-felted dots and beads — that I really love.
May 20th, 2009 at 1:49 pm
my favorite project was a set of felted coasters.
May 20th, 2009 at 1:49 pm
what beautiful projects!!!
May 20th, 2009 at 4:49 pm
I once felted a bag that I had knitted… :o) Not nearly as nice as any of these projects!!
May 20th, 2009 at 5:54 pm
I’ve just felted a sweater destined to become a bag, tea-cosy, mittens and various other things! This book looks great…
May 20th, 2009 at 6:01 pm
I have the needles, but haven’t a clue what to make with them.
May 20th, 2009 at 6:50 pm
I’ve only felted by accident! I’d like to try one of the kits!
May 20th, 2009 at 10:12 pm
my favorite felted project was a box that I knit and then felted, I made 2 of these as presents. It was a project from the Mason Dixon knitting book. I have also knit and felted potholders which are fun and make great quick presents:)
May 20th, 2009 at 11:01 pm
I want to learn! Felted a sweater once, awaiting transformation into slippers…
May 20th, 2009 at 11:30 pm
My favorite felted project will be from the kit, if I win!
May 21st, 2009 at 4:47 am
That looks gorgeous! I like making felt ‘friends’ :o)
May 21st, 2009 at 9:36 am
I have been felting for a while. I love to knitting a big piece and see it become a thick and cucshy felted bag. I also really love making felted beads for jewelry. I can stand at the kitchen sink washing and squeezing wool for hopurs on end. I can’t wait to get your book.
May 21st, 2009 at 10:14 am
I love those necklaces! I’m definitely going to look for this book the next time I’m in the bookshop!
May 21st, 2009 at 12:00 pm
I’m loving felting. My favourites so far are felted pears from Interweave Holiday Knits and some felted mushrooms from some generous soul on the Interwebs.
