Teacher Profile

 

Petra has been exploring the possibilities of felt making for many years

Felt helped me to contain myself  and allowed me to work creatively. I love the design and sculptural abilities the felt offers and make items that have a practical use as well as uniquely designed and are fun. I love to play with colour and shape.
