Fuzzy-Felt was an ingenious children's toy which first appeared in the 1950s. Basically you had a collection of small 'fuzzy' pieces of felt in assorted shapes, sizes and colours and then you had another material covered board on which you would arrange the Fuzzy-Felt in patterns or pictures. The Fuzzy-Felt would just stick to the material board with no adhesive and each piece could be repositioned as often as you liked.A whole range of different Fuzzy-Felt collections were launched with which you could make different set pictures or you could simply use the pieces to make your own design.Apparently, Fuzzy-Felt was invented by Lois Allan during the Second World War. Lois was helping the war effort by cutting felt gaskets for tanks and other military vehicles when she discovered the entertainment potential of the felt offcuts!
