There is nothing quite like wool as a medium for bringing comfort. Through the Heartfelt Community Project, founded by the artist Wendy Bailye, where wool felted hearts are created and shared as symbols of care, hope, and compassion. These hearts provide comfort to recipients, and the felting process itself supports emotional wellbeing for makers. Let's make  the comfort 3D hearts for someone in need and share them freely with the local community.   VFI Beginner Workshop Flyer
