...I frequently get emails from felt makers asking me if they can purchase only the patterns for my baby booties. When I taught how to make slippers, I was often asked if I’d sell only the patterns for the slippers.
I opted for never offering the resist patterns, the reason being that I’m for teaching...
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.
It was well received and fun to teach. But, next, I started focusing more on...

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 ...
You may have seen the images of my anise pod and have been curious about how the shape is created. If that’s the case, I have good news. The class is available again!
About one year ago I opened this course for registration for the first time.
As you may know, I initially created it as part of the...
I’m working on a new class that is meant to help felt makers go all the way (smoothly) from total beginner to intermediate. If you’ve recently started wet felting or you’ve been felting for a while, but still feel like there are many gaps in your knowledge, this may be for you.
But I’ll need some t...
Do you ever have moments of taking a glimpse at your felting table and thinking “OMG, look at all this plastic”? It’s happened to me often, so I’ve been trying to substitute it for other materials whenever I can. And I’ve also been thinking about writing a couple of tips for the felt makers who are ...
