Dawn Edwards has studied feltmaking with several renowned fiber artists and feltmakers from around the world, who she considers to be both her mentors and friends, and just plain fun to be around!
Dawn's love of color, texture, functionality, and beauty in everyday life, have led to artistic expression through endeavors such as stained glass and pottery, and finally to a medium where she is able to incorporate many of those techniques into her feltmaking. You may see some of the wonderful textural and sculptural images found in pottery, or the beautiful color ways noted in stained glass.
Dawn will have several of her felt creations featured in the upcoming book, 1000
