Fibre Fusion sells exquisite felting supplies at our shop www.fibrefusion.com.au. How can you go wrong? No patterns, no tutoring. Felt making is her passion.

Chrissy, a felt maker was frustrated with the lack of high quality felting supplies available so she decided to create her own. Her business objective was to offer textile artists, particularly felt makers and spinners, a superb colour pallet on the finest of Australian merino felting wool. Chrissy Lauritz has had a life long love affair with textiles. It started from age two, sitting in that pink

fairy dress on the back fence. Then her mum, Margaret filled her head with stories of the 1950’s when all the Melbourne girls went to dance halls every night of the week. Having little money, Margaret would sew up a stunning ball gown on her old treadle sewing machine. All self taught at the ripe old age of sixteen. That ball gown would undergo a metamorphis every few days. A new sash, beads sewn on, a skirt ripped off and replaced or perhaps ruffled organza added to the neck line . Anything to make that dress look new again. As she grew Chrissy watched her Mum knit all the woollen jumpers for the extended family, crochet dresses and macramé wall hangings. Little wonder Chrissy ended up in textiles. Felting supplies is her business. Hopefully she can continue to pass on the legacy of a love of textiles to a new generation.

Fibre Fusion customer and artist Annie Bolitho has a fascinating exhibition running now. 'YOU ALMOST KILLED ME' Very close to my heart - I've had too many close friends in horrible bike accidents. In Preston until the end of August 2015 at the Balkan Arty Incubator, 635 Plenty Rd. Don't miss it.

"An exhibition that draws on life on the road, where things change while you’re not looking. ‘You almost killed me' is made of scraps, stitches, skin-covering fibres, metal and wood. It invites viewers to join a conversation about danger and changes, trash, bicycles, drains and catchments. How does it look when something or someone is almost squashed flat?"

We have a big Sale starting tomorrow. You heard first about it on Facebook! Please note there will be no free international shipping for the duration of the sale.
