Hi, Seamsters!

I found an article in a quilting magazine that said felting can be done with woven wool as well as knits. I bought some used wool items to try. I'm most excited about coat weight wools. I have green and black. If you find other colors cheap, I'd love some. I think these will go as craft fair items. Also have grey tweeds, camel, and red in lighter weight. The article showed a quilt with bears and Christmas trees appliqued on. Quite cute. Other ideas to use these for?

I'm also working on a new one-block wonder that will probably make about 4 wall quilts, one of which will be donated for quilt auction or craft fair. I have a new book that shows how to make the floating cubes, if you're interested.
