I spent the afternoon experimenting with my felting machine. The Fine Craft & Design Fair is in two weeks and I decided to create some Christmas Tree art cards. The first thing was to make a base fabric. I started with green craft felt and laid lots of decorative yarns across horizontally. These were then attached to the base by needle felting with the machine.
I made a triangle template to use as a guide to cut my trees from the needle felted fabric.
Tree trunks from a thick brown yarn was added last.
Linen with gold threads was used as a background for the finished tree. This was mounted on a blank card.
