Felting is one of the oldest fiber crafts, it is a process to create an object made with wool fibers. There are two types- one is dry (needle) felting and the other one is wetfelting.
Jean Gauger creates unique art-to-wear nuno pieces as well as home decor, journals, handbags and framed art. Originally a knitter, she discovered wet felting and has been hooked ever since! Jean teaches and shares throughout the United States, Australia, Canada and now at The Aya Fiber Studio. Her work is on exhibit at the Kent State University Museum in an exhibit entitled Entangled: Fiber to Felt to Fashion. She also has had articles and tutorials in the Australian fiber magazines Textile Fibre Forum and Felt and was recently interviewed for Fiber Art Now FANfare.
