She taught e so much more than just how to sew- she always had ingenuity when problem solving too! <br />Love to hear you're doing the same thing!jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11285403858872713269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3943169481719963513.post-10068624397233028462013-05-13T15:06:01.485-05:002013-05-13T15:06:01.485-05:00Hello-

I too would love it if I could buy American made mohair for making my little felted people. Have made many trips to the local thrift shops to purchase hard to find mohair. Ive resorted to felting and cutting up mohair coats, wool coats and sometimes sweaters just to get my hands on natural woven fibers. Im not able to purchase the German mohair yet, just started my handmade items, so if anyone out there knows of a source not overseas that would be wonderful if they would share. As you know it is in the creation that one gets innovative, so right now the thrift store is my best bet.<br />Cheers...<br />JamieJamiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01319161725907608185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3943169481719963513.post-14649650648913181472013-05-11T22:07:04.411-05:002013-05-11T22:07:04.411-05:00Hello to a fellow Minnesotan.

My sweetheart and I learned to needle felt today in Saint Paul at the 'Craftstravaganza' and now my head is full of wooly (and other fiber) ideas too.
