Steffi Stern brings her inimitable energy and enthusiasm to her second book, a back-to-basics guide to making needle-felted objects. Each project includes clear steps and photos, as Steffi instructs the reader on basic techniques for making numerous projects.

Making Simple Needle Felts contains chapters on techniques, materials, tools, and accessories, as well as a chapter on making fairies, angels, and people, organized by season. The book brims with all kinds of treasures, including pumpkins, gnomes, strawberries, baubles, birds, bees, snails, flowers, the Nativity, mice, and mermaids. A beginner can do all the projects in the book. Some of the instructions are aimed at little fingers (no needles involved) and beginners, and some are intended for the more experience. Steffi’s advice: Have a go!
