Specifications

FABRICS

Just about any fabric can be felted with the Felting Embroidery Set, however, some fabrics
tend to give a more favorable result when embellished or laundered.


The recommended fabrics are those that are made from natural fibers, such as wool and
wool roving. The best characteristic for fabrics is a napped or textured surface.


A napped surface will adhere to a natural fiber/napped surface/or mixed fiber base.


Avoid synthetics with “wash and wear” type of weaves and finishes that have a smooth
surface.


The effect differs from fabric to fabric. Always test on a piece of material before you start.


HOOPING

When embroidering with the felting needles, no threads are used. The fabric is hooped with
the right side facing down.


When embroidering free-standing designs or when using wool roving, a water soluble
stabilizer is needed.
