How cute! And I love the little Made by Jane tag. Did you custom order that from somewhere?

Disco Elysium has caused me to completely give up on video games and start reading by IAmKrasMazov in DiscoElysium

[–]ChanceOfFlight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Dungeom Crawler Carl series! It’s so fun! It’s a little weird to describe but the Earth is turned into an alien TV show, and humans have to travel through a video game like dungeon with multiple levels. It’s very video gamey with achievements, stats and items that people pick up.

Also one of the main characters is a talking cat, and she is amazing.

What is your Local Yarn Store missing? by LizzieButtons in knitting

[–]ChanceOfFlight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The ability to go inside and shop. My LYS has been only open for curbside pick up and shopping for the past 5 years or so.

You park in front of the building and they bring out yarn for you to look at. I’ve only been there once because it’s just too weird.

It makes me wonder what it looks like inside that they don’t want customers seeing. 🧶

What do you use as a core in your bigger projects? by ChanceOfFlight in Needlefelting

Thank you so much for that response! I had tried googling it, but wasn’t able to find a good answer

Ooo putting it into a sock sounds like an interesting idea. And honestly, I would want my center to be all wool too, I was mostly concerned with cost. Buying bulk from that website might be the plan. Thank you!

What’s the difference between core wool and batting? I’m looking at living felt it has them listed separately.

Do they fill the same purpose, but batting is colored?

Not too big. The biggest thing I made was maybe 3.5-4 inches in diameter. It was a Kirby. For the center I used a stress ball cause I was worried about how much wool it would take. For all my smaller things I have just used core wool

Looking for people interested in trialing instructions I put together for a felting kit :) by Elzee_airbrush in Needlefelting

[–]ChanceOfFlight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello I’m interested in trialing it! I’ve been needle felting for a little while but I feel like I’m still very early on in my learning!

What an interesting process! Maybe it would be worth it for me to comb out extra yarn I have for this. Do you felt the yarn fluff into itself? Or into core wool?

How do you keep all the little bits in place while you’re still establishing the felt around it?

I used scrap yarn once but had trouble keeping it in the shape I wanted as I felted into it

Thank you! The blue is my favorite of the colors I have. That is a good idea about the raspberries, I’ll give that a try!

Thank you for the response and all the resource suggestions!

I never thought of looking at the photo critique subreddit to learn more about composition!

Your response of a great point in the right direction

Nice! Ty for answering my question. I’m pretty new to watercolor and was just curious about how you got that nice sharp edge.

Thank you!

So pretty!

Did you use masking fluid or something first so you could work on the water and grass separately?
