I am available for custom classes or private lessons. From an introduction to wet felting to textures, surface design, nuno felt.... Or specific projects such as bags, slippers, wall hangings or backgrounds for needle felting.
Want to have a retreat? A class with some friends? I can provide all the tools and materials.

Warning: felt making is addictive and can lead to creation of scarves, rugs, coasters, pictures, wall hangings, window coverings, table runners, pillows, three dimensional objects like bags, hats, coats, mitts, jewellery, slippers, sculptures, pods and vessels; even as big as a yurt or Mongolian Ger.
