The Art of Fiber at Inland Bays Garden Center
What is felting? Felting is the process of connecting or blending wool, wool roving, or fiber
together to make fabric. Wet felting uses water, soap, and friction to tangle the wool/fibers
together that produce stunning results. In this beginner wet felted wool class, you’ll create a
felted soap and a succulent vessel. The vessels you make in class will use Bergschaf (type of
sheep) wool. It is an easy fiber to work with, felts easily with temperature change and friction
and creates a firm, stable material. The hardest choice will be picking the wool color for your
felted soap and succulent vessel.
Sharon Davis of Davis Crafted is a textile artist working primarily with wool fibers. Her love of

classes. Today she lovingly creates handmade items using a wide range of mediums and
techniques. You ill find Sharon and her incredible felted wool crafts at local art shows and craft
fairs around Sussex County.
