Let your creativity soar with this needle felting machine! Now you can make your projects 
even more creative. Let your imagination soar to create beautiful felted embellishment on 
your garments, arts and crafts, home decorating, quilting, sewing, scrap booking and much 
more.

Just about any fabric can be felted with the needle felting machine, however, some fabrics 
tend to have more favorable results when embellishing or laundering afterward.

The recommended fabrics and trims are those made from natural fi bers, such as linen, wool, 
wool roving, and wool, silk or cotton yarns. The best characteristic for fabrics is a napped or 
textured surface.

A napped surface will adhere to a natural fi ber/napped surface/or mixed fi ber base.

Avoid synthetics with “wash and wear” type of  weaves and fi nishes that have a smooth 
surface.

To determine if  your embellished project is washable, it is recommended that you do a test 
sample fi rst from the fabrics you intend to use. Wash the fi nished sample the same way you 
will wash it after the project is completed.

For example, if  you plan on washing the completed project with a load of  jeans and then put 
it into the dryer, then do so with the sample. Do not “pamper” unless you plan on pampering 
the fi nished project.

Pre-washing all fabrics before sewing does not apply. With the needle felting machine, you 
want thefi nished project to “shrink” so the felted fi bers will stay meshed. With this in mind, 
be sure to make the project a little large, since the main fabric is a natural fi ber, to allow for 
shrinkage.

Because of  not pre-washing fi bers before embellishing, color fading can occur when working 
with bright and contrasting colors. Be sure to make a test sample and wash it for best results.
