The felt art we present in this summer issue is as colorful and multifaceted as life itself. Tanja Gawin, a Melbourne artist, is well-known for her brightly colored, humorous objects – be it a flashy tea cozy, shining sculptures or gaudy shoulder bags. Inspired by Ireland’s rich nature, Astrid Tomrop-Hofmann mostly uses luscious colors as well.

Meditative, relaxing, balancing – those who love to felt know about the positive effects of felt making. In the spring issue we portray the Canadian felter Mark Bevan. The craft helped him through a difficult phase of his life. The artist Constanze Habringer-Krög talks about how she final-ly found her personal style. Charity van der Meer-Musoma, born in Zambia, presents a veritable feast of technical techniques with her wearable art. The artist Maria Friese was invited to show her dreamlike costume at the “World of Wearable Art Show” 2022 in New Zealand.

From felt in textile art to felt costumes at a horse show to a felt shoe for the injured hoof of a donkey, the spectrum of topics in the fall issue of filzfun ranges. We present a portrait of three felt artists and craftswomen: Bella McBride from Canada and Hendrijke Kühnapfel from the Allgäu region have brought it to perfection in handling the felting needle and create impressive animal sculptures - each in her very own handwriting. Austrian Claudia Wirtitsch specializes in street shoes made of felt and leather.
Several creative women have taken up the felting network's exciting challenge of felting green projects without using green wool. We report on their experiences and show the results of their experiments.

A cat or an octopus as headgear? American Rae Swon creates such extravagant creations with a felting needle. She is one of the felt artists we are presenting in the summer issue of filzfun – each with her very own signature. While Rae Swon specializes in naturalistic needle-felt sculptures, Chantal Cardinal processes raw wool into impressive works of art, and Petra C. Sommer designs and makes enchanting clothing using nunofelting techniques.
As a special extra for filzfun readers, all three artists have prepared step-by-step instructions for a felting project: a wet-felted rose as a brooch, an oversized moth in needle-felting technique as a pendant and a colorful rooster as a doorstop and decorative element for the entrance to the house.

Through the filzfun spring issue runs a distinct thread – to be more precise, a colored thread. In several contributions we meet corals and other fascinating brightly colored maritime creatures. A whole “reef” from felted corals was made as a joint project initiated by the Dutch felt association ViltKontaktGroep, inspired by a crocheted sea installation by the sisters Margaret and Christine Wertheim that is currently on show in Baden-Baden.
The Dutch felt artist Saar Snoek is especially involved with the underwater wonderworld. Many of her objects are based on the overwhelming forms and colors of maritime organisms. She is much taken by the Nudibranchia, a sea slug, that she fondly calls „Nudis“: colorful sea slugs, similarly differing in shape and coloring as butterflies on land. One of them, a beautiful star sea slug, served as the model for an exceptional brooch, for which Saar Snoek is giving step-by-step instructions.
Next to Saar Snoek we are pleased to introduce two other felt artists: Anna Vidák from Ungarn, who follows in the footsteps of her famous parents Mari Nagy und István Vidák, as well as Galina Blazejewska, a born Russian who lives in Poland now. Both have found their call in life in feltmaking.
