5 out of 5 starsI have just returned to wet felting, and I was thrilled to learn I won't have to roll everything as I did before. I plan to work small, so this tool is just perfect. I imagine I'll still need to put in some effort, but what a great idea! Expertly crafted. Solid wood. I'm confident this will be a great tool to restart my journey. Great packaging and prompt shipment too. Even during a pandemic! THANK YOU!

Artistry in silk and fine wool. Woodcraft tools for fiber enthusiasts.
HeartFelt Silks is your destination for unique handcrafted Palm Washboard (TM) feltmaking tools, fine felting materials (hand-dyed silks, felting kits), and original fiber art. HeartFelt Silks is the creative collaboration of Robbin Firth, an accomplished fiber artist and educator, and Harry Firth, a master wood artisan. Our small business is based in Bayport and Stillwater, Minnesota, where all of our products are made. We are also at www.heartfeltsilks.com
The Palm Washboard line of felting tools, Robbin's and Harry's invention, greatly simplify the wet felting and nuno felting processes. Ergonomically designed, they eliminate the need for strenuous hand-rolling. Designed and handcrafted one-at-a-time, the Patented Palm Washboard felting tools are used daily by many feltmaking professional artists and felting enthusiasts around the world.
The HeartFelt Silks retail and teaching studio is currently located at 243 Third St North in Bayport, Minnesota. It carries a range of Robbin Firth hand-dyed and hand-felted garments and accessories, as well as wall and sculptural art, and home decor objects. Robbin maintains a busy teaching schedule of private and group classes in wet felting, nuno felting, and botanical/eco-dyeing. Robbin's work is available in several other fine boutiques.
Robbin Firth has been active in fiber arts for over 20 years. She enjoys working with raw fibers, carding and blending, spinning, and knitting, but wet felting and dyeing (including eco-dyeing) are her main passions. Her felt art is featured in the 2016 "Worldwide Colors of Felt" book, and her wearable and wall art was the subject of a solo exhibition at The Textile Center in Minnesota in 2016.
Harry Firth has worked with wood craft for over 25 years. In addition to making furniture and other various wood objects (hat blocks, yarn bowls, shawl pins), he also does chainsaw milling and art. He has been lathe-turning for over 15 years. Each Palm Washboard felting tool is entirely handmade by Harry Firth, in a sustainable way, using wood from native Minnesota fallen trees, including maple, black walnut, black cherry, red and white oak.
Harry and Robbin collaborate on a variety of creative art projects.
