some customers modeling their creations

like the wings of hermes!

felt hat and boots (check out kumihimo laces) to match!

hand-dyed mouton tibet cuff and kumihimo laces!

buttons & beading to boot!

below are some of my prototypes....

backstrap woven band inspired the colors for this boot and acted as embellishment too. a great fit with sheepskin insole and experimented with new way of felting the loop closrues

experimenting with the needle felting machine for embellishment on a high pair of boots (which I prefer to wear folded over for a fun cuff). Also an experiment of working the lacings in as its felted rather than applied after the fact.

grey locks embellish this boot which was an experiement with grommets and knitted I-cord lacing

the first boot trial...needle felted design and reinforced lace holes

a perfect fit, but embellishment of vines & leaves remains unfinished
