Rachel Morley

Feltmaker

Rachel Morley creates unique felt items by hand using predominantly British breed wool fibres and combining them with natural and dyed wool yarns.
Rachel studied Fine Art Printmaking at Loughborough College of Art & Design and has also studied Felt Making at Diploma level. Inspired by the coastal landscape of South West Scotland and its wonderful colours and textures, Rachel’s range includes British Breed Bowls, Cubby Bowls, Cubbyholes, Doorstops, Pebble Bowls, Pebble Pods and Word Bowls. Rachel is striving to make use of some of our rarest British Breed Wool fibres in her felt and source them directly from small British farms adding a valuable provenance to her work. Rachel also enjoys teaching others how to make felt! She has run many different workshops to introduce people to various felting techniques such as wet felting and needle felting. Over the years participants have made bowls, flowers, bunting, seasonal decorations and even pumpkins!
