Felting

I've discovered felting. It all started with some Manos del Uruguay knitted slippers that were designed to be felted. (Unfortunately they're still too big; must thread in some elastic.) Moved on to wool sweaters from Goodwill, which — if I ever find the time — will be deconstructed into purses and embellished with embroidery. Anyone know of a source for transfer paper other than the chalk tracing stuff from the fabric store?

News from chez moi

I know ... long abandoned, but not for much longer! Chez Craftymama will become a Web site in the not too distant future! Meanwhile, I will resume blogging on a more frequent basis. Look also on Twitter, twitter.com/chez_craftymama, to see what I'm up to.
