The aim of this guide book, is to present some ways of
going about things that have worked for me, as designer/maker of wearable
felts, and for my students in the felt yardage for coats workshops, I
hope this may encourage, ease and inspire those makers who are also
intent upon sewing larger garments with their felts.
