Mushroom Hats - in shapes and designs of β€˜shrooms’ I have known or want to know.
The book Mushroom Color Atlas by Julie Beeler offers up a comprehensive study of   mushrooms - their array of color and design found in nature.  Each of my designs approximates an actual mushroom.
Front left is a  Hydnellum Suavelens in the β€˜tooth’ family.

Dry needle felting is a bit like painting a picture with fiber. I use a special needle to work bits of fiber colors into a design to make colorful sunrise and sunset even in a cloudy day!

New Hats Fulled, Felted,Flipped and Finished!
footnote - Felting is the mix of heat, moisture, agitation and fiber to make a thick, dense mat of felt. Fulling begins with knit yarn (or woven) and the same process. For both processes - fulling and felting, the finished product is felt.

I create hats with bounce - they squish, fold and spring back. I call them Scrunch Hats!
