Kunin Felt 60p a piece approx
22 X 30cms with a wide range of colours
You can go GREEN whichever colour
Kunin felt you use!
This felt is made from recycled plastic bottles, by a similar process
used to make the fleece jackets we all like so much.
Because it is a synthetic product it will melt when heat from a heat
gun is applied, giving interesting effects, especially if the felt is
previously stitched with a thread which will withstand the heat. The
Madeira FS range is ideal. The sample (by Carol Green) was stitched
using the built in stitches in the sewing machine, then zapped with a
heat gun, melting the fabric in a pleasing way.
Make sure you recycle all your plastic bottles
