Needle
felting is a process that uses a barbed needle, originally developed
for industry, as a hand crafting tool. It can be used to create cloth
and to apply fibers to the surface of a cloth.
I only have one loom and a single project can take weeks to complete.
I started needle felting really as a form of “doodling”
to relax while taking a break from weaving. It’s very spontaneous
and portable, and provides instant gratification – in distinct
contrast to weaving. You’ll notice that I use a lot of circles
in my needle-felting— because weaving is so focused on the grid,
a true circle is almost impossible to achieve. This medium gives me
a chance to play and keeps me from getting too serious about my art.
