An Interview with Elsa Fletcher

What are you bringing to the Albany Holiday Crafts On Madison Show and Sale?
Nuno (a type of felt) hats and scarves. Ill be showing some rayon and chenille scarves and possibly some rag rugs.

What is your process and/or inspiration?
It's very simple - felt is a natural, sustainable, earth-friendly activity. All you need is soap and water and friction! Inspiration is the fact that ancient cultures have used these techniques as a matter of survival for yurts, clothing... Felting offers many exciting possibilities!
 
What else would you like us to know about yourself?
I live in the Adirondacks. In Thurman, New York exit 23 off the Northway.
