*Provided you have less than 5 questions about wool felt fabrics and that they are the same questions I will be answering.
I get emails nearly everyday asking some basic questions about felt fabrics. I thought I would re-post the top 5. Of course if your question isn’t here email me at customerservice@feltandcraft.com and I’d be happy to help any way I can. So here we go with…
Question 1:
Which kind of felt fabric is best for my project? Acrylic felt, Wool Blend Felt, or 100% wool felt?
That depends on many factors however 75% of the time my answer is wool blend felt. Wool blend felt combines the beauty and durability of 100% wool felt fabric with the lower price point of an acrylic. I actually find that the wool rayon blend felts are nicer to work with in small sculpture (felt food, stuffies. plushies etc.) compared to 100% wool felt, since it moves and drapes into shape beautifully. If you follow this blog at all you probably know my feelings about Acrylic felt. In short I think it is horrible!!
For more specifics on which felt to use see the Felt Smack down where in I discuss all the ins and out and light stuff on fire too!
Still stuck? Have no fear for I have created this handy flow chart:

YES!! I love it! “Is it for your mother? Are you 5?” So funny… I’ve only worked with acrylic once, and it was miserable… horrible… worst felting experience EVER.

Hilarious flow chart. Love it.
I admit to using acrylic felt out of cheapness and because there just isn’t much color availability in the stores near me in anything other than acrylic, sadly. I’m a wimp about ordering online from new places, which is something I should really work on!
I completely understand but should you ever decide to take the leap feel free to order from our store: http://www.americanfeltandcraft.com, we promise we’ll be gentle! 😉
