I started felting in 2014, after meeting a lovely lady at a craft fair, who was selling a selection of little felted animals. I was mesmerised by them, their individual characters and lovely tactile feel. I asked how they were made and although she tried to explain the process, I could not fathom the concept. How could a single needle, a small foam pad and a pile of wool, produce such wonderful little unique works of art? I came home with one of her little creations, a Hare, and started researching the craft through various mediums.
My fascination grew and I bought myself a starter kit and a book and began making little creatures of my own. I was thrilled at what I managed to achieve in a short space of time, finding Needle Felting to be the most relaxing and rewarding craft I have tried.
No complicated patterns, no expensive tools, easily portable and you can sit for minutes or hours, without having to worry about where you left off!
It is easy to achieve really pleasing results and learn new techniques.
I started running workshops in 2016, as I was keen to share my passion for felting and build friendships with like minded individuals. I now have a regular following of lovely folk, who too have been enchanted by this simple, fun, relaxing and rewarding craft form.
Last year I made my first Felting Kit, a hare, as I have a love for them. I named it 'Heartfelt Hare' and have been selling them at craft fairs and my workshops with much success, so hope in the coming years to add more to my collection.
I make and sell bespoke felt characters, gifts, kits and sell a selection of my favourite wools and felting items, for you to make your own felted creations at home.
Whether I am running a workshop or making a special gift, I always throw my heart and soul into it, the aim of giving you a positive, fun rewarding experience and ultimately putting a smile on your face!
All my pieces have a heart felted on them or carry a heart, sharing the Heartfelt ethos
