  • Join me in the studio in this playful wet-felting exploration where I create felt art on the fly using materials from my stash! What challenges will I run into? What mistakes will I make and what new techniques will I discover? Learn what to do and what not to do as I work through felt-making ebbs and flows.
    ♥ Hi, my name is Lori and my goal is to teach, inspire and live off the land in style by knitting my own clothes, creating essential survival items and living luxuriously warm, dyeing fibre using bright acid colours and occasionally plants, fungi, muck and mud.
    When I began wet felting 10 years ago, there were only a few basic tutorials. On this channel, I want to share everything I know so so that you can easily begin upgrading your craft by creating remarkable fibre art more quickly. From illustrative conceptual ideas into beautiful creative work that is ready to repeat quickly using minimal tools and resources.

    Loved watching this, I made felt, and then did similar attaching to my cut out sewing pattern pieces~ and created clothing, also I freestyled sewing over it, love it x

      It sounds awesome. I am very interested in making felt clothing! I think I will try a vest first. But no sewing for me, I will have to make it all one piece. Maybe one day I will learn to sew :) I do however use my sewing machine to freestyle... I started doing this first but then gave up because my sewing machine wasn't very good quality for that. I will buy a new one one day and take it up again. Beautiful results with free motion embroidery.

    Lamination techniques are so fun,! I've been playing making some samples with this this past week,I liked a cotton fabric I had in little clumps under the silk, texture everywhere! thanks for sharing this 😊

    • @muffsmerino

      I never thought to call it lamination! It's so much fun to experiment with different materials to see how the fibre reacts. Woven cotton is beautiful. The video was inspired by a gorgeous chiffon and smooth thick polyester print fabric that I made a while back. It was so nice, but I lost it. The blue Organza turned out quite nice though. Thanks for watching!

    is your silk's weight 50 g/m?

    • @muffsmerino
      @muffsmerino  2 месяца назад

      Do you mean does the silk weigh 50g per meter? Hmm I don’t recall weighing it. It’s very lightweight. I can weigh a piece and will try my best to remember to add it into the video description!

    Will you ever consider doing a live chatt?

    • @muffsmerino
      @muffsmerino  Год назад +1

      I will definitely consider it in the future. I would like to, especially if there were other people interested and the time change made sense. I might need two devices hmmm. One to record, one to chat, Just thinking out loud here haha!
      I really appreciate the thought, thank you. Something to think about.
