Felt
Alongside my embroidery work I also create felt decorations and ocasionally larger felt pieces too. All decorations are made from quality wool blend felt with added hand embroidery, seed beads and often small handmade tassels too.
I primarily offer decorations by commission but also periodically create a small selection for sale, these are most often listed in my Etsy shop. Please see 'Felt FAQ' below for more information.
A selection of decorations and felt pieces I have worked on are shown below, click the images to see them larger/ see more information.

Felt FAQ
Where can I purchase your decorations?
I mainly offer decorations by commission, but also occasionally make a selection available in my Etsy shop. I love to receive custom requests for decorations, if you have something in mind, please do feel free to get in touch. I can offer the decorations shown on my site in your chosen colours, or something totally new, as well as decorations inspired by the colours of your pet. Prices start from £18.50 for decorations in styles I have already created (such as camels, horses etc) and from £25 for custom decorations (new shapes, decorations inspired by pets etc)
Do you own a shop or gallery and would be interested in stocking my decorations? Please feel free to drop me a message via my contact form :)
Do you make felt pet portrait decorations?
I do offer custom decorations inspired by pets; not pet portrait decorations as such, rather they are decorations featuring folk art inspired pattern and embellishment created in colours inspired by your pet. Prices for this kind of decoration starts from £25.
How should I care for my felt decoration?
As with my embroideries, although I use quality materials it is a good idea to keep your new decoration out of direct sunlight as all textiles can fade. To clean decorations it is best to just blow gently on them to remove any dust that has accumulated. This prevents damage to delicate parts such as tassels, which may start to look 'fluffy' if over handled.
What materials do you use to make your decorations?
I use a quality wool/ viscose blend felt, many of the felts I use are heathered which means they have a lovely, extremely subtle, mottled effect.
I stitch my decorations with quality DMC and Gutermann thread, and often add beads. These are occasionally plastic but are most often made from glass.
Finished decorations are stuffed with quality polyester toy stuffing, with hangers made from either Perle cotton thread or beaded.
