Shop Announcement:

A note about UK postage - most of my items will be small enough to post as a small parcel at £3.70. The additional item charge is there to cover the cost if you order two bigger items which make it a large parcel - but I will refund this additional charge if it isn't used.

About Thistledown Felts

Thistledown Felts

Creating original, one-off needle-felted pieces from the heart of North Yorkshire

I've been needle-felting for quite a short time, but I caught the bug quickly, and now I'm hoping to find new homes for some of my creations. I work out of my home and take inspiration from the natural world, folklore and myth, and sometimes just from seeing two colours of wool alongside each other and thinking that they would make a good pine marten...

There are a lot of online felting shops, but what I hope makes me different is the variety of my subjects. I don't really do mice and rabbits, and I like to seek out things to make that haven't been done umpteen times before.

All my work is overseen by my two pet snakes, who aren't especially helpful but do seem to enjoy playing with my wool.
