🦇 GONE BATTY! 🦇
You’ve seen me carding up these mini batts and full size batts over the past couple of months, and now is the time to release them into your felting hands! I've created custom mini batt that weigh under 1.5 ounces and full size batts that weigh between 2 and 3.5 ounces. I have so many fun colors for you to create with! I mean, just look at this beautiful fiber! All batts are a combination of several different wool fibers, silks, firestar and more, and are hand carded by me for use in your wet felting or needle felting projects....

So I’ll be switching things up, sometimes without notice, to take care of mom, get her to appointments, surgery and recovery. I have a wonderful virtual assistant, Bri, who will be helping me even more during the next few months as I bring a mini studio to mom’s home to keep Stab Things Into Existence running. Head...
