More love for felt

Journal Entry: Wed Jan 23, 2008, 8:56 PM
I've found myself playing around more and more with felt lately and discovering that you can make some really fun pieces with it. It has a versatility that seemed to be invisible to me before; it's easily cut, sewn, and stuffed. It can be applied to a flat surface, or shaped to be a cuddly toy. No longer is it the childhood craft material of frustration, which pulled apart and fuzzed and stuck to the glue on your hands.
