Earth Friendly Felting Mat or as we call it EARTH MAT!
Finally a solution to a lightweight environmentally friendly felting mat made from wool.
We recommend using one Firm Base Felting Mat and one Soft Top Felting Mat together - this also gives you a discount over buying each mat separately. The Earth Mat comes in many convenient sizes, each layer is about 10mm thick:
- Small: 10 x 15cm (about A6)
- Medium: 15 x 20cm (about A5)
- Large: 29.7 x 21cm (A4)
- Extra Large: 42 x 29.7cm (A3)
- Special Edition: Large Square: (30 x 30cm)
- Special Edition: Extra Large Square (42.5 x 42.5cm)
The Soft Top Felting Mat is made from: 100% wool which makes it compostable when it wears out and needs replacing - the wool is dense wool so will last a long time particularly if you rotate the mat occasionally so you use different areas. The Firm Base Felting Mat is made from 70% wool and 30% man-made fibre but will last for a very long time and may not ever need replacing!
This way you save money and the planet. It doesn't get any better and you get a instruction sheet too. We have found that you can use the Earth Mat from both sides (firm and soft) depending on your project.
The great advantage of the Earth Mat is that it is durable unlike foam mats or similar and versatile in its use: flat needle felting, shaping, single needle use or multi-needle tools are all possible.
