Felt Collage

I am continuing to experiment with fiber and collage. In this piece I started with a needle felted base, cut out three holes and then covered them with gauze and silk. I stitched them together with a new japanese paper thread I just discovered. This is the result.


Available for purchase in my Etsy shop.

More needle felting

Needle felted doll with turquoise skirt
I hadn't made any needle felted dolls in a long time so yesterday, sick with the flu, I got out my roving and started stabbing fiber. This is the result...

Fiber Artist Debrah Krol

Many of you know I'm a needle felting fiend. People often ask me about the process and I have found a great article by Debrah Krol called "I've got that felting feeling" which explains it. Her work is lovely...check out her woven mesh bracelets too.

Cameron's fiber art

Scene at the Project Room
Last week I was at the Project Room again where Mandy Greer is in residence. She invited textile artist Cameron Anne Mason to speak about her work and why she makes. Cameron brought samples of her hand dyed fabric which was delicious. She also showed some of the fabric sculpture she shows at the Foster|White gallery. We all sat around crocheting for Mandy while she spoke, even a dapper gentleman arrived and took part in the creative scene.

Needle Felting - New projects





I've been needle felting up a storm! This is an ancient art that involves stabbing wool roving with a special felting needle many, many times to form and shape objects. Here are a few recent projects. They are available for purchase in my Etsy store, ArtNest.

Fiber Art

Here are some of the things I've been needle felting this past year. I've got this whole batch for sale in my etsy.com store, ArtNest.
