Fi HarrisFi is a felt-maker, printer and creative experimenter; she plays with textiles, textures and techniques from her North Somerset studio.
Fi's work takes inspiration from nature and colour to create unique felted pieces for hanging or wearing and limited edition screen prints & etchings. She uses these techniques to create one-off marbled papers to make hand-bound notebooks. Wet-felting involves using wool, water and friction to create a felt 'fabric'. Screen printing is a process that allows for the reproduction of a design, using a partially blocked mesh to push ink through to create a print on various surfaces & materials. Marbling produces unique patterns by collecting suspended inks from a marbling bath solution onto treated paper. Contact details: Click here to contact Fi via email.

Suzy HannabussAfter a few years of making jewellery, I discovered these wonderful handmade glass beads called lampwork glass beads. I immediately fell in love with them and had to learn how to make them. I have been working with glass for over 15 years now. Lampworking is a type of glasswork that primarily uses a torch to melt the glass. The glass comes in rod form and many different colours. Once in a molten state, the glass is formed by blowing, stretching, and shaping many layers with tools and hand movements on a steel rod to form a bead. Once finished with my design, the beads slowly cool in a digitally controlled kiln known as annealing. Annealing glass is an essential process of slowly cooling hot glass after they have formed to relieve internal stresses introduced during the making of the bead. These one-of-a-kind glass beads are the core of making my jewellery.
