Amy John | 1 comments Hi Lena! I just sent an email about this yesterday, because the blog wasn't working. Sorry for the double messages!

I wonder if you've had any experience printing on 100% felted wool (no synthetic fibers.) I want to print a label on natural colored wool, but I don't know at all where to start. Should I stamp, what ink do you suggest? Can it even be done?

Thank you! By the way, a friend shared your book with me, and I must say that I am in awe! You're work is so beautiful. Thank you for sharing it with me!

hi amy!
i haven't printed on felted wool before, but it will take a print similarly to other heavy weight fabrics. how detailed is your logo? that makes a big difference as far as what technique i would suggest. send me a jpg with the size information, if you want, and i can give you some more guidance.

so glad you like the book-- thank you!
