Description

This burly gnome fits over a bottle or log to greet visitors or just watch over your home. His hat is made of recycled plaid and padded with wool roving. His hair and beard are made of Shetland fleece (all the way from Shetland, UK) that has been wet felted. His nose is made of locally grown wool and the tassel on his hat is part of a real found bunny tail. Size is 19" x 9" x 4".


Becky raises sheep and makes fiber art, specializing in feltmaking. Using the wool from her flock of sheep, she creates two- and three-dimensional felt art pieces including wall art, garments, accessories, rugs, and vessels. Felting combines her love of animals and nature with her passion for art. She enjoys teaching and sharing the magic of felting with others. She has studied with renowned feltmakers from many countries. Her felt artwork has been included in fine art shows, wool festivals, and publications including The New York Times and 500 Felt Objects.
