3D felting with a round resist Sep 22, 2025

We’ve started a little tradition in The Dodo Hub: once a month we hop online and felt together. Lately, the challenge has been about the circle. We grab a round resist, and experiment with the techniques from the program.

Stop looking online in vain for templates for your slippers! Apr 23, 2025

I frequently get emails from felt makers asking me if they can purchase only the patterns for my baby booties. When I taught how to make slippers, I was often asked if I’d sell only the patterns for the slippers.

What would you like to know about resists for wet felting? Mar 23, 2025

About two years ago, I taught a class called RESISTS MADE EASY – A PROVEN SYSTEM TO DESIGN RESISTS FOR WET FELTING.

It covered how to make resists for shoes, clothes, hats, bags, gloves and vessels in all sorts of shapes.

Special offer for 4 of my most requested classes Dec 01, 2024

When I created THE DODO HUB, my year-long program, in 2023, many felt makers said that one year was too long for them. But they were interested in some of the topics covered in the program.

How to stiffen wet felted items Oct 13, 2024

I don’t use stiffeners often. But sometimes they can be useful, especially for sculptural wet felting. The problem with stiffeners is finding one that doesn’t make your work very hard, and still lets your felt look natural.
