Fabrics
Just about any fabric can be felted with the creative™ Felting Embroidery Set, however, afterwards some fabrics tend to give a more favorable result when embellished or laundered.
The recommended fabrics are those made from natural fibers, such 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.
