"Felt and Fibre" by Val Hughes


Another great new title thanks to one of my favorite publishers, Search Press. Val Hughes has been one of my favorite art craft authors and this book does not disappoint. I have been making quilted felts for many years, but this is the first time that I have seen something like them in a book.
Ms. Hughes always manages to,present clear, concise, well illustrated instructions along with an excellent recap of necessary tools and supplies as well as the basics to get you going. If you like felt and are interested in creative ways to use your felts then this book will not disappoint.
Other areas covered are excellent, well presented illustrations about the basics and tools used in wet felting. Many unique techniques for taking your felt work to the next level are included. As always with Search Press books...look for beautiful, well done illustrations and rich colors.
