This is the little cat that I made with hand needlefelting. It's not a very good picture, but I've tried lots of different angles and can't seem to get him right. He reminds me of Mog, from the children's stories.
This is a sample I made with the Embellisher Machine at my needlefelting workshop. I like all the textured bits (made on a wooden skewer and then attached with the machine) I just loved using the machine. 
Here is another piece I made on the machine. Just a sample piece, trying out different pieces of fabric and fibres. And yes, I have ordered an embellisher - it makes felting so much easier.
I'm afraid I'm an ignoramus because I have no idea what needlefelting is or what an embellishment meachine is, or does!!
ReplyDeleteLove the shots though - the tree is wonderful!
Beautiful samples Janice, looks like you had fun experimenting with the machine! (enough fun to part with cash, evidently :o)
