There are so many felted pretties around but I’ve yet to see anything like these until today. It is definitely fiber love and it’s called Nuno Felting and I must try this!!!
This is the first piece that caught my eye
And of course I had to find out more. The process involves felting onto silk. So amazing isn’t it!!! This piece is by instructor artists Sally & Susan of Spirit Hand Studio
And then I found this!!!! From Lois at Navajo Lake Felt Studio
And this! I’m “allergic” to pink shades but the style of this is so amazing from Juliet Hone
And finally here is a great tutorial from Ray Reynolds. I love everything I saw of hers. And know I know how to do this so I’ll be trying it as soon as I can swing it.
Finally here is more info from the artist credited with developing this technique, Polly Stirling.

I love all these felt scarves and so on…. and I guess I missed a few posts with some giveaway gifts – darn it– that’s what I get when I worked hard all week in my studio and missed a lot of blogging — will have to try and keep up!

i love nuno scarves and have bought a few on etsy…I am a total textile junkie! I ‘ve done a bit of silk felting but It’s hard to find neutral colors of silk and soy fibers for those of us who are allergic to bright colors!!
