Magic Felted Balls; the magic moment is when we cut them open to reveal the swirly symmetrical pattern inside.

Wet-felting is the ultimate sensory experience. You can feel the fibres change throughout the process.

Wet-felting is the ultimate sensory experience. You can feel the fibres change throughout the process.
One of the hundreds of felted flower brooches made in my sessions in libraries, museums and community arts venues.The rhythmical rubbing of wet wool fibres with warm soapy water is also exceedingly calming especially for people who are dealing with heightened anxiety and mental health challenges.
Felting has
also been a fabulous medium for creative work in HOSPITAL and HEALTHCARE SETTINGS.
Between 2008 and 2012 I devised and facilitated summer projects at Birmingham Children's Hospital.
Felting projects there covered small jewellery projects through to glove puppets and wall hangings. Work produced was exhibited at Arts Fest, some is on permanent display within the hospital and other smaller items were kept by the participants (a positive reminder of their creative achievements made during challenging times in their lives).
2010 Penn Hospital Wolverhampton - Exhibited as part of The Joy of Making - Wolverhampton Museum and Art Gallery
2019 While working as Supply Teacher (Becton School - Sheffield Children's Hospital Site) 1:1 work over a six week period.
While based in the Midlands 2006-2014 I also facilitated felting therapeutic and creative sessions in a range of other COMMUNITY SETTINGS.
Clients include: Libraries, Adult Day Care Settings, Home Educating Family Groups and also Disability and Mental Health Support Groups and Adult Crafts Groups
