why didn't I buy this a long time ago?
This is so much better than eyeballing the felt online and trying to guess at the exact shade. After I received the sampler I strung them together so I wouldn't lose any swatches. They each have the color name and number and it also came with a floss guide that gives the matching shade in DMC. Bad news is there are a lot of colors in there that I didn't realize I couldn't live without until now.
Much better in person. But still I can't seem to find a true, bright magenta in wool-blend. Might have to spring for the 100% wool felt for that particular shade. I have some thrifted wool felt in that color but I only have teeny tiny scraps left.

ReplyDeleteI was looking at this the other day. Wanted so much to get me some felt, but I'll have to wait a little bit so I don't feel too guilty about the price tag. I'll break down soon I'm sure. :)
ReplyDeleteYum. All that fun coloring goodness. Is that odd to say?
ReplyDeleteYes. wonderful. I want some!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the link!
oh yummy!!!
ReplyDeleteI bought mine a few months ago and I love it. Such a great investment!
ReplyDeleteHow cool!!
ReplyDeleteWho do you buy your felt from? I am always looking and I am addicted to felt but Joanna's is not cutting it! Please share?

Love your blog
Joey and Nettifer, look up several comments and you'll see I've given the link ^up there a wee bit.
ReplyDeleteFun! Like paint chips for felt :).
ReplyDeletethx
ReplyDeleteI wanted to order that last time I ordered my felt. Maybe one of these days! :-)
ReplyDeleteThat is really smart - and tantalizing. Just figure how much money you'll save, though, by not having to order a range of colors when shooting for the exactly right one.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh! I am going to have to get one of these!! Thanks for sharing! :)
ReplyDeletePopping in to say hi!
Cheers!

Bob, yeeeeeah. Right. That's exactly it, why didn't I think of the SAVINGS? :-)
ReplyDeleteYou'd be amazed at my purchase justification capabilities.
