Sources of Inspiration
Shalom from Israel.
My name is Elaine and I live in Israel and together with my partner Elana we started FELT 4U about a year ago.
I have been felting for a couple of years and if you read our blog www.felt4uart.blogspot.com you will see something of my early felting experiences in the article Curious Conversation.
Recently I was host to Phyllis Hoffman www.phylstudio.com International Felting Teacher and my felting guru, for a five day Master Class of Felting. One of the participants was inspired by the Talis which is a religeous garment worn by Jewish men when entering the synagogue for prayers.
Inspiration comes from many sources and I would love to hear from my fellow felters where your inspirations originate from.
How about Sources of Inspiration as a topic to generate comment and discussion, or has this been done before on the Felting Team blog?
Regards
Elaine

No, Elaine, we have not done this before. Great idea!
You picture shows the very beginning of the felting process, am I right? Could you show the finished piece...it's really interesting!

Thanks Olga.
As you can see by her face she is absolutely delighted with her finished nuno felted item.
