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.
