Fibre to Fabulous: Nuno Felting Art Projects

16th October 2024

Hi everyone

Our French home renovation project is now completed. Daily tasks are more maintenance than construction. Yuk!

The creation of my “she shed” in 2019 was a fluke of genius ahead of the COVID19 lockdowns. A safe and creative space tucked into the butterfly cottage garden.

It was during COVID that I took up wet felting seriously and fulfilled a wish to learn nuno felting.

Wet felting takes over my life.

For five years, my little shed has become my place where fibre and textile transform into little pieces of magic.

I have always had a passion for textile and creating my own has been an awakening.

The felting bug bit hard are discovering how how to create my own. From wearables such as shawls, scarves and even shoes to homewares, sculptures, gifts to saleable pieces.
Learning the basics and then creating my own methods, shortcuts and cheats to produce stunning pieces has been great fun. From fibre to fabulous is my new mantra.

Lately I have run courses with other ladies in our region showing them how to create their own stunning pieces. This has been a true joy.

From cushions to jewellery – felting is fabulous




This December I will start to upload some of these courses and projects here. I will begin with wet felting basics and a couple of easy projects to try yourselves. I can’t wait. Stay tuned or write to me if you would like me to let you know when the content is up.

Be prepared to be hooked.

Even Flo the cat loves felting – for he it is more a spectator sport
