Oliart and the Big Red Hat - amazing DIY felting video by a little girl

I came across this video while looking online for tutorials on how to make a felt flower. This video is actually how to make a felted flower (a totally different technique than I had in mind). As I watched, I was completely blown away by two things:

1. Felting looks easy and fun

2. The little girl hosting this tutorial is amazing: incredibly articulate, cute, and better at explaining a project than I'd ever hope to be.

You've gotta watch this even if you have no interest in learning how to felt!!

Oli is just one of 3 extremely talented kids at Big Red Hat, a website geared toward kids but certainly great for adults. For more information about Oli, her siblings, and their adventures check out their site here.
