Fashion-Forward Ways to Use Wool Felt
Coats & Capes: Transform cold-weather outerwear with the luxe texture and inherent structure of felt, resulting in eye-catching silhouettes.
Hats & Berets: Wool felt's moldable nature makes it an excellent material for hats, berets, and fascinators—offering classic or avant-garde styles.
Bags & Clutches: Give your accessories a high-end look with felt's structured drape, ideal for everything from roomy totes to elegant evening clutches.
Statement Details: Use felt as trim, appliqués, or even shoe embellishments. Its robust, sculptural quality adds flair to any fashion piece.
Tips for Sewing with Wool Felt
Pre-Treatment: Felt typically doesn't shrink much, but a light steam or pressing can smooth out any creases before you begin cutting.
Sharp Cutting Tools: Use quality fabric shears or a rotary cutter for clean, precise edges.
Minimal Seam Finishes: Edges don't fray, so you can often skip hemming or overlocking. However, consider adding lining or interfacing for added structure and comfort in garments.
Press with Caution: Press gently on the reverse side with a press cloth if needed, avoiding excessive heat that could flatten the felt's texture.
Caring for Wool Felt
Spot Clean or Dry Clean: Most wool felt garments or accessories perform best with professional dry cleaning or gentle spot cleaning when needed.
Handle with Care: Avoid vigorous rubbing or wringing, as it may distort the felt's fibers.
Air Dry: Reshape the item and air dry on a flat surface to maintain its original silhouette.
Proper Storage: Store felt items in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight. If possible, keep them folded or stuffed (for hats/bags) to help preserve their shape.
