Clover Felting Needle Mat Large Review

While this felting mat works just fine with the Clover felting tool, it really is unnecessary. An equally thick felting foam pad works just as well, if not better. Flat felt tends to stick to the bristles and get kind of messy, which might make roving felt faster in the first place but will mess it up as it felts, too. Also, it's pretty worthless if you switch to using a single felting needle, and it doesn't work as well with thin layers of roving which sometimes work their way down the bristles before they get a chance to really felt.
This Clover mat does have three advantages over a foam pad: 1)It has a hard plastic back that lets you use it on a pillow in your lap (whereas a foam pad should be used over a hard surface lest you poke yourself), 2)It is well-made and more durable than a foam pad, and 3)It will hold things in place, and so it works better when needle felting onto a felt ball or such.

Clover Pen Style Needle Felting Tool Review

This is a really comfortable tool to use. It fits the hand better than a single needle and has multiple needles for faster felting. The needles are for fine or detail work and leave a nice finished surface. I use my Clover Pen all the time on all my needle felted item. The only thing I would change is the cap. It should fit on the wrong end for storage when you are using the tool. Mine doesn't. But I wouldn't let that stop anyone from trying this handy tool.
