Needle Felting - I got a book published last year titled: "Needle Felting - to the Point" which was about techniques. Unlike most craft books, it wasn't a project book. I used a lot of projects to illustrate the information I was explaining. It was filled with a lot of really good information on the tools, materials and how to work with them. It's doing pretty well.
The second book I want to be on problem solving and may actually include some step by step projects. Currently I'm thinking of doing a woodland fantasy theme for the book. I created this diorama this past week which I might use for some of the photos. I'm in the process of building another diorama and may end up including step by step instructions for building it. ![]() Now if the weather will cooperate, I might make more progress. We have snow (urg) today and the heat in my craft room doesn't work so unlikely I will get a lot done today.

You too wyv! It's been too long, and it's all my fault. Funny how life does that to one.
![]() I thought it'd be a piece of cake, install windows 7, install microsoft virtual PC, install windows 98, install W&W --> PLAY! But no ![]() And congrats on getting a book published. That's really impressive! I've only tried needle felting once, making a couple of snowmen from an available kit. Had a great time doing it with the kids.

Hope you manage to get W&W working!! Probably is a directx issue - seemed to often be just that!
Second book on Needle Felting should be out soon - it's such an interesting and versatile craft/art. You can check out some of the things I have done at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/prittens/ While I prefUR to make prittens (pretty kittens) - I've made a lot of other beasties, mostly for classes on CraftEdu.com - I need to get another class made for them soon.

That giraffe is so adorable! Not a big fan of giraffes, but oh my. I think I need to try it once more, if my fingers can stand it.

Will it even run on Windows 7. I miss the days of playing W&W, now I hardly play PC games at all.

I don't know if it will run on Win7. I really haven't tried. I used to play a fair amount of PC games. Now I really don't have time for it. There also seem to be fewer PC games and more and more games played on the web.
Things change!! |
