From 2 July, 2015 to 9 October, 2015 I’ve challenged myself create an artisan wool felt bow tie every day. 100 days of constant creation, and more than 1000 hours of needle felting. I kept doing research of color combination, soft sculptural textile and discovered details of how wool fibers could work in a different way.
Inspired by ancient manufacturing techniques and the nature of wool fiber, moved by people’s stories, I combined those together with contemporary beauty, then created wearable art that enhances one’s unique charm. This was the most amazing thing I’ve ever done and the very thing that kept racing my blood.

The detailed journey of creating artisan wool felt bow ties shares a similar passion and dedication to handcrafted felt art as described in the story about the felt faces project.
For those interested in exploring creative expressions in felt beyond faces, the innovative blend of color and texture in wearable felt art offers a fascinating extension to the technique, as seen in this needle felting project focusing on charming felt creations.
