This is a wonderful kit by artist Dani Ives featuring a Yellow Swallowtail Butterfly in an 8 in. hoop! This is an intermediate kit. We recommend having at least a little bit of flat needle felting experience before you tackle this project. Please note that unlike our other kits, there is not an instruction sheet. Instead you get an in-depth video tutorial taught by Dani.
Kit is beautifully packaged and includes:
Needle Felting info sheet Link to video instructions Two color-coded felting needles in a handy paper tube Felting wool (all Felter's Palette) 100% linen fabric backing High quality 8 in. wooden hoop 10x10 foam mat Butterfly pattern
You will also need:
A fabric pen or Sharpie to transfer the pattern onto the linen. Also, scissors and glue to secure the picture in the hoop once it is finished. Hot glue is recommended.
This kit is intended for adults and kids over 10 yrs. who possess good manual dexterity, hand-eye coordination, and ability to work with focus and care. (Caution - felting needles are sharp!)
