Hello there, I am a fiber artist based in Chester with a focus on creating cute cartoon style felted creations.

I have sold custom creations all over the world as well as developing new felting techniques. I believe in using all-natural materials and that needle felting can be learnt by anyone with a little bit of time, patience and determination.

My friend and I enjoyed the workshop. The teacher was great and provided clear instructions. The teacher was full of excellent knowledge and made the entire workshop full of fun. We would both like to attend another workshop in the future. Thank you again.

An amazing class and a brilliant introduction to needle felting for beginners! Jex was a fantastic teacher and walked us through each step of creating a felted dragon with demonstrations of the techniques and helpful tips.

Jex also contacted me before the class to ask if we'd want any specific colours of wool in our craft kits which was a really nice touch. I enjoyed the experience and would love to try another class in the future!

Jex is an incredible host, lots of patience and really fun to learn with. They have a great 'can do' attitude and brilliant sense of humour. The class was fun and informative which ran on time and to schedule. We had a lot of employees joining the class remotely from home, some joining in with heir families and others just taking part solo and it worked fabulously well. Couldn't recommend enough. Thank You!

The class was absolutely excellent and my daughter has been enthused and inspired to do more needle felting. Jex was very accommodating, patient and generous with time and help. I have no hesitation in recommending this class to others. Thank you v much Jex
