Best felted feathers yet! Perfect timing for me to see this as I am making a very large Phoenix and this is brilliant, Thank You soooooo very much for sharing your talent with the rest of us! Can't wait to try it!!!
Really good enthusiastic instructor...thoroughly enjoyed watching how simple you made it all appear!! I’m sure it’s as good as the person making it, so we will all have to take a leaf out of your book and be confident! Look forward to more demonstrations...well done Elle! And many thanks! 🙋😘👍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Helen in Norfolk. 🙋
You did a fantastic job of teaching how to make a feather! I have Mareno wool so I’m glad you chose to use that type for this project! Thank you for sharing such wonderful creations with us ❤
Thank you so much for sharing! I can't wait to make some feathers and use them in the dream catchers that I make. They are going to be beautiful and special. Blessings
Hi I just wanted to say thank you what an easy way to do feathers. I am new to needle felting and I'm obsessed and mine going to make a bird for my daughter based off of her conure parrot
@@TheWoolCoffinMaker wow! I had no idea such a thing existed today...but alwyas felt this was the natural way . just seeing your feather technique today, and then looking at your new site. I had the most wondrful experience discovering quite by 'accident' about 10 years ago that a cotton dress I'd bought for the fabric that did not work on me, was beautiful cut up, and painstakingly brushed and combed into feathers. :) what a revelation. Just one more step along a path of loving fibre and paper-making, and so many things that i trust will eventually all come together. Or not. :)
This is a very helpful video! Because I dont really have the bonding fabric or the wool, do you think if I used brushed yarn and hot glue it would have the same effect?
hot glue probably will be a bit messy so in my opinion a better option is to get a stiffening fabric or something that bonds whit the other material sorry if you didn't want some randoms persons opinion
In all honesty I am not sure on this one! I would recommend experimenting. If the yarn is very chunky the second method using the No-Sew Heat'n'Bond may have a greater chance of success as its a stronger bonding glue. I would love to know how you get on if you do give it a go - Elle :)
Hi Elle, m new to ur channel. I loved the way u explained everything in details but I don't know what that feathery thing is called. I can't understand, so can u pls help me telling the name of it. Thanks :-) .
Shivangani Shah hi! Which feathery thing do you mean? The wool fibres are merino wool and the bonding fabric is iron on hemming webbing. Let me know if its neither of those things! Elle :)

Thank you :) Merino wool is my favourite for decorative work. The way it comes together as felt is just beautiful.

I'd like to see the project you use these feathers on and how to incorporate them to a needle felted bird.
Thank you Elle! And thank you Pam Duthie for this intro
The thing that i was shearching in whole youtube finally got it.
So much fun🤗 Thank you
just lovely - can't wait to try this
Excellent Idea... what kind of wool did you used.....
Thank you so much for making such a helpful video. What a shame your website is not available.
My work has evolved and I am a coffin maker now - you can find my work at www.woolcoffins.com :)

great video :D
thank you :)
Wow super like this 😍😍
Thank you :)
Перья как живые. У Вас хорошо получается. Удачи вам! 👍👍👍👍💖💖💖

Wonder wear ?
Hi Elle! Do you think i can do it with faux wool as well?
Hi Tammy, yes I think that would work. I cannot see why the fibers would not fuse to the bonding strip :)
what's the name of this yarn?
can you say me the name of the piece of plastic you put inside the feather, please???
thanks a lot very helpful for birds or others
Thank you :)
How did you make the feather fibers?
the feather fibres are wool tops. You can purchase them online :)
Pure genius thank you so much!!!!!!
Thank you! :)

Elle Hunt thank u so much O:-)
I like it
great idea! I love it!
Can you use pipe cleaner wire as well
It is washable
I have never tried - the wire would be an issue perhaps but it could work by hand
I hope you make much more creative thinks
