Book Reviews of Feltmaking and Wool Magic: Contemporary Techniques and Beautiful Projects
Book Review: Very good book for those new to felting (my only frame of reference)
Summary: 5 Stars
I am new to the world of felting and have yet to get my hands wet in it, but wanted a good book to learn thr right way! I think I have found it in this one. The author goes into GREAT detail on everything, including many fascinating historical references.
The projects are well thought out and the step by step directions look like anyone (even me) can follow them and get decent results.
Thank you for the attention to detail! If any of you reading this are wondering about this as a first felting book, I would say get this one AND one of the simpler ones and you should have it made! Happy Felting!
Summary of Feltmaking and Wool Magic: Contemporary Techniques and Beautiful Projects
After studying textile design in both the USA and Finland, author Jorie Johnson was introduced to the felt making process in 1977 when she was first taught Scandinavian felt boot-making. She was immediately struck by felt's amazing properties and possibilities. Through this book, Feltmaking and Wool Magic, you will see that Jorie's approach to felt making is clearly creative as well as effective. The book covers in detail, basic step by step felt making techniques, then goes on to present a series of projects from simple jewelry to beautiful vests.Textile Arts Books
