Nuno Felting Sample Fun!
I’m exploring Nuno felting with fabrics that would not be traditional choices, just to see what happens. I mean, that is how I discovered that cheesecloth makes an excellent fabric to use for Nuno felting, especially if you like an organic lacy look to the finished project.
What if I'm totally stumped?!
You have a felting kit, all the supplies you need.. now what? Anna Walker Felting Facilitator at the FELTit Experience will walk you through a few steps on what to do now that you have a kit.

I Felted... now what?
Over my years of felting, I’ve created jewelry (earrings, necklaces, bracelets and more), covers for books and notepads, cup sleeves (I called them Cuppa Cuffs), bags of all sizes, and hats. And I feel like I’ve only just begun (cue the Carpenters) to explore all that felting can become...
Moy Mackay Workshop
Moy is a fantastic, down to earth instructor. She had us all work from the same inspiration photo, demonstrated her process, and then covered up her work so that we each would find our own interpretation. As we began our felt paintings, Moy would offer suggestions based upon her skills and education in fine art. Even those of us who had been felting for years found her help to be invaluable in elevating our interpretations in the final products.
Where I began
Some of you have known me from early on in my felting journey, and you have seen my work transform and evolve slowly over the past ten+ years. Some of you only know me from what I’ve been teaching and doing these past several years, as I’ve honed my teaching skills in local workshops, convention classes, and guild events and meetings. But I dare say that very few, if any of you, recall my early work, for which I was, at the time, as a self taught felter, very proud. Now some of these make me cringe: I show you...
What you don't know...
Of course there are rules, as there are for any art-don’t use any fibers that have been superwash treated to wet felt is a big one! But I hope that you will give yourself permission to say “what if” and then discover for yourself what the end result will be. And, if you feel you need permission from someone other than yourself, then PERMISSION GRANTED!
