So, to start with, here a few of the gifts I created for the holidays (note that the common theme this year was FELT!):
I made this case for i-Pods using a felt sheet bright pick that I measured to enclose the i-pod. Before sewing it, you need to decorate the side that will be the front. To decorate it, I used a small cut of another felt sheet in a matching color (in this case, purple) - I sewed both to the case-to-be and then glued with a hot glue gun a couple of glittering spots. After that, you can proceed to sew the felt case with a matching thread (in the case of an iPOD) don't forget to leave a small opening at the bottom for the headset to connect.Then I made a bunch of foulard; all similar materials but using different techniques.
The first one was done using wool top and felting it with needles until the wool threads are attached to the fabric used for the foulard. The second one was done using felt sheets in different colors and cutting them in different shapes. I did attached the different shapes to the fabric using the felting needles again.
