Debbie Elsmore
Felt and Mosaic Artist

Growing up on a remote island in the stormy and unpredictable South Atlantic Ocean,the nearest landmass was a seven day journey by sea. This made me realise the importance of recycling even at a young age, as we never knew when our next supplies would arrive.!!

I became a great collector of ‘things’ especially fabric and wool.

Using beautiful Merino wool, silk sari threads, bamboo tops, fibres and the opportunity to use my colourful recycled fabrics and yarns. I discovered the art of wet and needle felting
The layering of sheep’s wool, entwined with delicate fibres create a vibrant colour palette to Paint with Wool’……..rewarding and relaxing.

My other passions are mosaics,and stained glass. These Crafts are new to me and I am learning as I create and loving it !
