This book helped me when I was just starting out -I had never needle felted before and I picked up this book and one other one. Since then, I've really picked up the craft. This book really appealed to me in part because of the look of it, and the insides are just as cute. The authors have made an excellent book to introduce novices to needle felting, and in a way that makes you feel like you could come up with your own ideas and implement them, at least to play around and improve your skills.

As the last reviewer said, this book does exactly what it says it will - offers simple techniques and beautiful projects. If that's what you're looking for, this does the trick. Loved it!

This book was a slight disappointment, as it was rather like so many on themarket, although not a brand new publication, it left new designs alone. however, for a beginner to Felted fabrics, it would be good for the very beginner.
It was colorful and as stated simpple techniques. Basic information.

I purchased this book after receiving (and loving!) the other book by the same authors. The first book helped me get a handle on the skill of needle felting and now I'm seeking out new projects. This book has some of the cutest, hippest ideas! I've been using it to make gifts for friends, and no one can believe I made them myself. I would say this book has inspired creativity in me, as I've even made some changes to things after mastering them. If you knew me you'd understand, that's really something! Great for anyone interested in needle felting.

The cover makes this look like it would have great ideas ... but the inside "style" of the projects are nothing I would want around my house... I am sure they are great for someones taste - just not mine.

I've been looking at doing a crazy quilt and thought that learning Needle Felting would help. I learned that it's fun, you can be creative, but it takes lots of time.

The book was very helpful in showing steps and giving ideas. Would recommend this book.

This is the book I used for my first needle felting project. WOW! I was so happy with the results! Clear easy instructions and the photos were extremely nice since I rely on photos to help me understand directions. I consider myself a wool artist, thanks to this book of Simple Techniques I've discovered a new love of needle felting to combine with my wool projects.

This book is very, very simplistic. It covers two dimensional needle felting only (no sculptural or 3D work). It is also not very clear on materials and references only the authors' (VERY expensive) supply store. This type of needle felting is basically an imitation of embroidery, which in my opinion doesn't warrant an entire book of instructions. There are patterns included and are very similar to the one on the cover - feminine, floral, simplistic, and a little boring. I didn't like this book because it covers only a tiny facet of what needlefelting can be. The book never states that, and if this was your first introduction to this art, then you might not ever know.
