Hi my name is June and I love to create little things of joy and whimsy with wool.
I graduated from Edinburgh College of Art with a degree in Design & Applied Arts in 1999 and became a mother a week after my degree show. Creativity was put on hold until I discovered the craft of needle felting and a whole new way of expressing myself opened up. Many years have gone by honing my skills making everything from dog models to cheeky seagulls in my studio in Gullane, East Lothian. Through patience and imagination anything is possible using wool.
This small series of individually hand felted swimmers are made exclusively for The Velvet Easel Gallery.
