New York Times Feature

Look closely and you may spot one of my bears quietly photobombing this beautiful image. It was a real pleasure to be included in The New York Times T: Style Magazine’s feature on felted animals. Moments like this feel significant, not just personally, but for the wider recognition of needle felting. It is encouraging to see the medium gaining mainstream attention, not simply as a craft, but as a respected and expressive art form.
