 Great book on the topic July 29, 2009

I don't know what the other reviewers problem is - this is a very helpful book for anyone wanting to attempt nuno felting. It has good step by step instructions with full color photo illustrations. Perhaps it's too basic for the expert, but for folks just beginning, and even those who've done a few projects and want some topping up of technique, I don't know how you can do better. I hate wet felting, but bought Nuno Nouveau because this book made the nuno version of the craft look approachable. The projects are pretty basic, but not everyone is ready to tackle a complex project, and some are really pretty. Once you know how, then you can fly!

Good publication on the Nuno-type of Felting being done so much in New Zealand. If you're a felter and want to branch out to Nuno, this book will give you good information and spring board your creative ideas.
 Very amateurish March 18, 2009

I am new to Nuno feltig and was looking forward to being inspired. I was sorely disappointed by this book. Not only did I not find the projects inspiring, I found them quite amateurish. The examples presented in the book showed little finesse either with design or color. I have seen many beautiful examples of nuno by other artists on-line, in galleries and even in my beginner's class.This book did not include any such examples. I much prefer the books Uniquely Felt and Fabulous Felted Scarves which I purchased atthe same time

The title was promising, the content very disappointing. It shows some basics only. Nuno felt has been around for awhile now and I was hoping for some originality.
Did not receive this book :( October 23, 2009

This book is one of seven books I ordered from amazon but could not get. All 7 books were returned to Amazon with the reason - "undeliverable" stamped on the package. As a result, Amazon refused to re send them to me. Therefore, I am unable to order books f rom Amazon at this time. If you want to order books from Amazon, be very careful this doesn't happen to you.... I am still waiting for my credits to my account which was charged when the books were shipped. Be careful when ordering from Amazon...
