Sweet Needle Felts: 20 Projects to Wear, Give & Hug

The adorable animal party picture on the cover inspired me to purchase this book. However, once I received the book, I was disappointed in 90% of the other projects. Many of the other projects are apparel related, but the pictures show items that would only be worn by a 4 year old or a 98 year old grandmother. For example, one project is to make a felted ring, and the end product looks like a giant easter egg. Who wants to wear an easter egg on their hand?

On the plus side, this book is a better guide for beginners. The author explains basic needle felting techniques, and has a list of sources for supplies and wool. For this reason, I am glad that I purchased this book, but I will not keep it in my library... this book would be a great one to borrow, read, then pass along to a friend.
