Hi, I just love your work. I am working on my first wool penny
matt and would like to know what you used to keep the pieces in place. Did you baste them or did you use heat and bond? I tried heat and bond and that just matted the wool. Any suggestions? I finally basted the pieces on after the heat and bond didn't work. It is hard getting the need through it. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. Is this pattern your own or did it come from a book? It is awesome!!! I would love to have a copy of it. Thank you. :)

Darcy, I just ordered your book and am really looking forward to receiving it. I assume that the penny rug instructions are in the book. I can't wait to get it and start looking for old wool jackets, skirts, and coats. Do you have to felt the wool or can I use them as is? Thank you so much for all of your help. :) :-) :D
