Materials
- Foam working surface
- 38 gauge star felting needle
- Matching sewing thread
- 6cm (23/8") polystyrene egg
- Wool tops:
Tease off a piece of blue wool roughly 20cm (77/8") long. Wrap it around the polystyrene egg mould from just over halfway down to the top. Working with the foam surface underneath, stab the felting needle into the wool, going all around the circumference. The needle should just touch the polystyrene, but not go into it too deeply.
Repeat Steps 8-13 using the pink felt at Step 8, then again using the green felt at Step 8 to create the three different egg cosies. Your easy needle felting tutorial is complete.
