Can you believe this felt coat? This woman, who is a clothing designer, got this piece of functional art in a swap with a friend and fellow designer, which begs the question: what fabulous piece did her friend get in return? This woman’s bag is also from a fellow designer, and the skirt, photo below, is from Italy, from a friend. Nice friends! I don’t usually take notes during my rounds, so I hope this woman leaves a comment on this post with her web address so we can find out more about her work…

Beautiful! Reminds me of being at Haystack Mountain School of Crafts back in Maine in the fiber studio and seeing how felt was made. Fascinating transformation. Those colours are gorgeous.
