No answer, but great question! I am about to be doing somethings on felt also and never thought about that!

it's okay. I really got some good advise, I hope you can use it also. I'm going to use a paper solvy which will disolve with a little water. If I'm careful, I don't think the felt will shrink.

I have done a lot of refrigerator magnets with felt and I always used stabalizer. I do not know if it would work without or not

Terre, it depends on the felt - if it is a thick and sturdy one - I would say not - but if it is not - the design might actualy hold up better with the stabilizer behind it.

Thanks Shirl. I hadn't thought about the distortion of the design. Great info and advise.

Terre, I use stabilizer when I embroidery on felt. The felt I have does have some give to it. H&*

Thank you, I haven't thought about the give in the felt. But it would make sense. Thanks

Thank you for your info. This is from Hobby Lobby, which is probably the same as the dollar store.
