This project was made using Baby Lock's needle felting machine, the Embellisher. Visit www.babylock.com for more information about this fun machine! To see more photos of Evy's needle felted projects look in the Inspiration Photo gallery under "needle felting."

"The March April 2010 issue of Creative Machine Embroidery magazine printed favorite tips from the current article authors on page 7. Unfortunately, due to editing and space, Evy's tip was not printed correctly. Please visit the "helpful hints" page to read more about Evy's advise for stabilizing."
Please note, this article includes information that was added by the editorial staff at CME that is incorrect. On page 45 under "Wool Roving & Ribbon" it suggests the use of temporary spray adhesive to hold the ribbon and roving in place before needle felting. Temporary spray adhesive should NEVER be used with needle felting machines. Evy did not know that this information was added to her article before the issue was printed, and apologies for any inconvenience this may cause the reader.
