Hi Jenny, Yes it is felt- sort of. The lining is heavily stitched and beaded needlefelt, the interlining is forma felt and the outside is needlefelt into chiffon, slightly wet felted and then hardened with PVA so it is solid and covered in embossing powder. Thanks for the good wishes.
I am a textile artist living in the suburbs of London with my husband and daughter and numerous pets.
I have recently gained a BA (hons) in embroidered textiles to add to my other qualifications both in textiles and teaching. I am a Licentiate of the Society of Designer Craftsmen, Leader of the exhibiting group Material Girls and instigator and founder Chair of the Eastern Region Textile Forum.
My practice is led by my work with both fibres and thread. I am most likely to be found sewing in my studio or sketching/photographing and wishing I lived near the sea!

This looks interesting, is it felt? Good luck with the dissertation, I'm told Sarah Braddock Clark is very good.

This is lovely. I'm interested to know what forma felt is?
