I love blocks. And I love felt boards. They're both terrific toys for open-ended, creative play. Put them together and you get . . . The Felt Blocks. They're shaped and proportioned like classic unit blocks, but they're flat, like classic felt board pieces. Rearrange them into anything you can imagine.

They're tactile. The French knots are delightfully bumpy and the split stitch makes nice raised stripes that are interesting to touch.

They can easily be stashed in a purse or bag. They're quiet. They're beautiful. They're very easy to make.
