How wonderful!! Then you're in a great position to use both of your artistry to create from scratch with the wool! Here is one of my hats, just to show what I do!

I simply curl my feathers to fit as snugly on my hats as I want them to. I use my hair curling iron. It takes a little practice, but you can shape the feathers into all kinds of shapes!
Yes, I start with wool roving, or alpaca, or rabbit fur (not the pelt). As soon as I get my profile done I'll share a few of them! It's quite a process!
A great possible solution! Thank you! Now I have two new solutions to try! You are all the best! I'll be working on my profile soon... I live in Reno NV and have now felted an official 38 hats!
I have not tried that and it sounds like a great idea! I'll give it a try, and I thank you for your response! Yes, I felt with wool, alpaca, and rabbit fur. Thanks again!
Hello Lefty! I'm very new here and I'm not sure if I'm posting my question correctly (I'm posting a reply to your post)? My question is... Is there any method to keep wrinkles from forming on the underside of wide brims during the felting process? If I felt with a resist there are not as many...
