Needle felting is done with barbed needles. A lot of people do it by hand but I have a machine with 5 needles and it just does felting.... no thread just needles. You can see one on Viking web site. www.husquvarnaViking.com
I love working with wool and the needles mesh the fabrics together.

Cute! Great job. I'd like to try needle felting someday; it sounds interesting.

I'm at the site, but can't figure out what to look for. I typed in "felt" and "felting" but nothing came up that I recognize. Can you steer me a little better? I want to see it in action if possible!!
