  • 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.
