<p>On my first few I didn't want to buy expensive premade flowers or premade feathers ...so I went to my local craft store Hobby lobby and bought a bag of feathers for around 4 dollars and just started peeling cutting and curling with my hair curlers....then I came across the next batch of videos..lol. Imagine my surprise when Elaine opens up MORE ways to play with feathers. But if in a rush petershams is a quick place to go.</p>

<p>Should I buy a kettle? I was thinking to just use steam iron. But if you think it's necessary I will buy it. Other thing... is it easy to buy rajah iron cloth? Because I'm living in London and I don't know in what kind of places they sell the Rajah Cloth. I can buy it through Amazon but I think it's better to buy it in a proper store.</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>Hi Maria, Just use a kettle to start with for steaming. Buy feathers or flower to match for trim. Lesson 20 details how to use felt scraps to create trims for felt hat but you may wish to add extra. </p>
<p>Stay in touch, Elaine</p>

<p>Great advice Bridget - thanks for your support to help new students. In the felt lesson I teach mostly hand stitching but also machine use.</p>
<p>My advice to students is do not buy brand new computerised machine as felt is thick & straw is rough. A reconditioned second hand one is best to begin with. Felt is lovely to work with as you can mold like playdough. Enjoy -Elaine</p>
