About two years ago, I taught a class called RESISTS MADE EASY – A PROVEN SYSTEM TO DESIGN RESISTS FOR WET FELTING.
It covered how to make resists for shoes, clothes, hats, bags, gloves and vessels in all sorts of shapes.

Last week we had a look at how to felt thin cords the easy way. But what if you want to felt thicker ropes like the ones you use for bag handles? Are they made in the same way?
What do you do if your wool top isn’t thick enough?
How do you guarantee that no grooves form on the surface of the cord ...
This video is the first one of a new series, in which we’ll be looking into the topic of making cords or ropes in wet felting.
While it’s more geared towards beginner felt makers, I know that many more experienced people also struggle with this. During my years as a felting teacher, I’ve gotten man...

When I created THE DODO HUB, my year-long program, in 2023, many felt makers said that one year was too long for them. But they were interested in some of the topics covered in the program.
So, to give everyone the chance to participate, I started offering some of the classes separately. You’d get ...

In our December meeting, the suggestion was that we create seasonal pieces. We usually felt 3D/sculptural items, and that was planned for December as well. But even thou...
