1005 - NEEDLE PUNCH PURSE
Create your own felted artwork and turn it into a purse! Come in and try out the needle-felting craze! Whether you own a machine with this accessory or not, you may come and try this technique, as machines will be available for your use. Needle felting is the fast and easy technique of applying and interlocking wool roving into wool fabric using a barbed felting needle. The up and down motion of the barbs on the needle cause the fibers to become and stay entangled.
