My first dry felted soap.

Looks like you are good to go scouter139! What you might want to get is some more needles, different sizes fine, medium and big a few more wooden needle holders. Ones that hold single needles for the tiny areas. That one on the left holds more right? I use that one to cover the soap in felt. It is faster that way!

I completely felt my soap one color then I do the designing...

Yours look great!

I LOVE the felted soaps! Especially the one with the handle. Too cute! Looks like a little purse to me.

I've needle felted before but I'm curious how do you needle felt onto the soap?

I tried using the link that you posted and it's in German. :?

I've got roving, I've got needles and I've got soap. Shall I just start stabbing? If logic serves me correctly, you would stab into soap that's only semi-cured? Meaning that it's sorta soft yet?? Correct?

I tried wet felting once by wrapping the soap with roving then rubbing it on a sushi mat. It was a lot of work for something that didn't turn out so well. I didn't like it so I haven't tried it again. I'd sure like to see if I can make it work out!

I have no problems poking the soap. That soap is 6 weeks old. Just be careful because the needles break easily.

Yup the link is in German but there are a lot if good pics!
