- Needle felting is easy to do and fun to learn!
- Use Clover’s Needle Felting Tool, and Needle Felting Mat with Wool Felt and/or Natural Wool Roving to create beautiful appliqued accents and accessories.
- Clover’s Needle Felting Tool has five barbed needles that catch wool roving fibers and pushes them into the base fabric/project.
- The brush-like Needle Felting Mat enables smooth punching with little resistance, and allows the fibers of the applique to mesh well with the base fabric.
- Natural Wool Roving is available in a dozen colors for Needle Felting, Pom-Pom Makers and other yarn projects.
- Wool Felt is available in three color palettes; Brights, Autumn, and Heathers.
- Place base fabric/project on the Needle Felting Mat. Cut Wool Felt applique shapes and place on the right side the project, and pierce lightly with the Needle Felting Tool. The fibers will become interlaced, attaching the motif to the fabric. Repeated piercing produces also produces a fluffy image of the applique on the reverse side of the fabric.

- Use Clover’s Pen-Style Needle Felting Tool and Needle Felting Applique Molds to create three-dimensional designs to be appliquéd or used on their own for embellishing.
