About Felted Heart
Felted Heart makes handcrafted, one-of-kind repurposed wool garments for kids and adults. The company’s mission is to make a line of well-made, environmentally sustainable fashions that exude whimsy and warmth. Former marketing executive and marathon runner Mary Sweeney founded the Atlanta-based company in 2006. Felted Heart’s clothing for children and grown ups are available by appointment at Felted Heart’s Studio, online at http://www.feltedheart.com and at other independent boutiques, including The Beehive.. Mary lives in Atlanta with her husband and two children. She crafts her designs for Felted Heart in her studio in the city’s historic Old Fourth Ward neighborhood, in close proximity to downtown Atlanta.
FeltWorks is owned and operated by Mary Ellen and Russell Chamberlain. Mary Ellen has a fine arts degree in painting, and has been a fiber artist for many years. Russell joined the company full time in 2001, and brings to FeltWorks his background in marketing and small business management. Together we are the sole designers and primary production artists at FeltWorks Studio in Athens, Ohio. We've been playing with wool,the stuff felt is made of,for some twenty years now. In the mid 90's, we began raising specialty-wool sheep on our Southeast Ohio farm. Some of the wool we spun into yarn for knitting and weaving, and some of the wool we sold through our retail yarn shop and gallery, Main Street Fibers. As our flock multiplied, we soon had more raw wool than we knew what to do with. To put a barn full of excess wool to good use, Mary Ellen began experimenting with feltmaking,a great way to use lots of raw wool,and a new fiber passion was born. Selling our work locally at first, we spent the next few years developing techniques and refining designs based on customer feedback. In 1999, we sold Main Street Fibers so that we could devote ourselves fully to studio production. Our company is now in its fourth year, and our FeltWorks line of products is available in fine craft galleries across the country.
