Furzie

As Furzie, Michelle creates sculptures of people and animals from wool, needle-felted around a wire armature.  Her commissions have sold worldwide and, for the past six years, she has been teaching the craft at venues across the country. 

“I love needle-felting characters and watching them evolve before my eyes. As you work, the wool somehow takes over and tells you what the final shape will be. With no sewing or glue involved, the whole process is very organic – just you and the wool. The only thing limiting you is your imagination.”
