Grace Mahanes

My journey as an artist/crafter started as a knitter in the 1950s when it was popular to knit socks for your boyfriend. In the 1980s I knitted more sweaters than my family could wear. That is when I joined the Potomac Fiber Arts Guild and Gallery. Being a member of such a talented group inspired me to try other mediums and techniques.

Today my favorite venue is wet felting. I make purses ,hats ,vessels, clothing and jewelry. I relish making felt flowers . I use flowers for pins ,barrettes ,hats ,belts and necklaces.

Belonging to a felting study group and taking numerous felting classes has opened up unlimited possibilities to feed my soul.
