Sheri from Exotic Gardening Farms: My Introduction

Tell us please how you originally got into felting.
I was looking for something to do with my fiber and liked the look of felted items.

- Your favorite technique
So far the only technique I have mastered is needle felting. Once I get wet felting figured out I think I will love it.

- Your favorite materials
Wool.

- Favorite colours, colour mixes
Yellow and pink.

- What is your biggest challenge when it comes to running your shop?
I have yet to make my first sale, so I would say making sales is my biggest challenge.

- What other shops out there do you love (not necesserely textile)?
Any that have to do with using natural fibers, plants, seeds, herbs - anything natural and organic.

- What item in your shop would you most like to receive as a gift if someone were shopping for you?
My handwoven rug spring pansies and butterflies.

- What are your future plans concerning felting and your shop?..
I intend to add more felted items as I get them made.
