Heather Hall has a non-traditional and self-directed art education that began as a child learning from the hands of the women in her family. She has studied and experimented in fiber arts, ceramics, book arts, fashion design, painting, felting and pattern making, on her own and with talented artist-makers. She always returns to felt as it incorporates the aspects of designing-making that she love: endless variety, fiber, color, pattern and an element of surprise and discovery.
