Wool Sculpting

Louise Lambert’s witty narrative artworks are created using wet and needle felt techniques. She is continuously inspired by wildlife and everyday objects, exploring poetry and literature in the form of illustrative scenes and quirky three-dimensional objects. Louise is a self-taught felt artist, who trained, specialised and gained her degree in Textile Design at the Reigate School of Art and Design, and is currently based in West Sussex. She has embraced needle felting, creating her own studio in her garden – The Felt Hut – through whose windows she can observe the nature that inspires her.

This simple and straightforward craft book would make a nice gift for the beginner and for those who prefer to learn just a few of the basics by trying out some of these wonderfully whimsical projects – before heading off into the creative world of felting.
