That's gorgeous! What do you think could be produced from 6 badger face welsh mountain fleeces?

The black ones or the white ones? We could do a good pattern or just plain rolls......it would be nice!

Plain rolls/pieces are £25 per kg of fleece received and art work is extra by arrangement

I love the yurt felt - is it for you or a customer?
Can you send out samples of the different weights of felt, also both needle and wet felting?  If so I will email you separately to request some.  I have a backlog of fleece, all well stored, and some ideas for using felt.  Just need to get the moths out of my purse  :D

As a matter of interest, what weight of fleece goes into the yurt liner?  Do you then do the roof separately? When you say liner, does it also have an outside?

I have emailed you about the samples
