- Using merino prefelted sheets is a wonderful way to get straight to design without all the laying out of loose fibres.
- Using mid weight sheets of prefelt, students will design and felt a colourful project by cutting, layering, and felting the sheets.
- Prefelt lends itself to unlimited designs, whether pictorial or abstract.
- Once felted, your "canvas" can be further embellished by beading, stitching or further cutting.
- The technique is simple, forgiving and freeing.
