I didn't even know there was such a things as eco-fi felt. I have to investigate now. Your stash looks so inspirational... and a great book too.
ReplyDeleteThat softies book looks good, the little puppy peaking from the corner looks like a design i tried to come up with of my Labrador puppy when i got her - love to see what you make when your done :-)
ReplyDeleteGreat photo, the puppy is so cute!
ReplyDeleteOooh lots of promise there.
ReplyDeleteOooooh Eco Felt! What a genius idea........is it kinda shiny looking?
ReplyDeleteAnd Softies eh! I cant get enough of cute Toys!
oooooh, where did you get the eco felt? I'm dying to try it out, can you recommend a shop?
ReplyDeleteNice felt. Where did it come from?
ReplyDeleteoooohhh nice pillowcases and felt! :)
ReplyDeleteI'd also like to know how the felt goes, especially how washable it is (and where it comes from). I was just given a copy of the first softies book but still haven't managed to make anything from it yet!
ReplyDeleteLovely pillowcase goodness as well...in my cleaning-frenzy (I wish!) I've come across so many thrifted pillowcases! Looking forward to seeing what you make with yours.
I see I'm not the only one curious about the felt! Do you have a local supplier? How does it feel? How would you compare it to standard acrylic or wool felt?
ReplyDeleteI've never heard of eco felt and it looks like I am on a long chain of the same kind of comment. Please tell me more...
ReplyDeleteoh, i love the softies books! super cute things to make. :)
ReplyDeleteoh, a felted jumper - well done you!
ReplyDeleteLooks like there's going to be some very tactile, felty good stuff happening here. You need to make something at this time of year that will warm your hands during the creative process and it looks like you've got just the thing!
ReplyDeleteGina, you came up with a Typepad profile without blog or email address...love the eco felt and like everyone else keen to know where u got it and how it sews
ReplyDeleteOhhh... which softie are you going to make? I'm interested in the felt too! They might have to give you a commission. :)
ReplyDeleteA lovely pile of inspiration here. I'm really taken by those felt softie books, they are too ridiculously cute. Especially little elephants!! Such an 'awwhhhh' factor.
ReplyDeleteExcellent. I love my "Softies" books :)
ReplyDeleteOooo the world is your oyster with such a super selection of ingredients. Looking forward to seeing what you cook up!
ReplyDeleteLots of raw ingredients! What will you do with the jumper? I like those pillowcases.
ReplyDeletewell I'm looking forward to seeing all these goodies upcycled in the near future. The pillowcases are fab!
