Emma & Laurine: Felting

Master felt maker Laurine Malengreau based in France & fellow Emma Fardeau

Belgian craftswoman Laurine lives in Aubusson and is strongly influenced by the region’s heritage of tapestry making. Laurine creates large-scale wall hangings from silk and wool using the Nuno Silk technique which she learned from her Spanish master 15 years ago.

Passionate about hands-on activities since early childhood, Emma studied applied art, design, and textile crafts at École Européenne supérieure d’art de Bretagne. She has recently completed a master’s specialising in eco-responsible, ethical, prospective and innovative textile design.
