Felt making is an ancient technique to create a woollen fabric. I love it and like to share my experience and skills with you. Wet felting is a really amazing process, where fluffy sheep's wool turns into a sturdy, but still soft fabric. You can create beautiful items, like decorative objects and wearables and give them your very personal creative and artistic touch.
