  Felt is a useful and hard-wearing fabric, and a versatile and attractive material for home crafts. It comes in a great variety of colours and is widely available. Reflecting the revival of interest in folk art and domestic craftwork, this book contains more than 40 felt projects, all with straightforward instructions and line drawings. Each one has a colour photograph of the finished item, and templates are provided for guidance. The projects include designs for clothes, jewellery, toys, gifts, festive decorations and items for the home, and there are sections on equipment and on making-up and finishing techniques such as using templates, stuffing, stitches and applique.
