Dawn Edwards is a fiber artist specializing in fun, out-of-the ordinary felt hats. She lives and works from her home studio in Plainwell, MI, and sells her work under the name of Felt So Right. Dawn’s hats are often noted for their unique style and technique, brought about through the use of vibrant colors, textures, and sculptural aspects. Dawn states, ‘At the heart of all of my creations, is an eye for meticulous attention to detail. I hope that you will enjoy wearing my hats as much as I love designing and creating them.’

Dawn teaches both within the U.S. and internationally. Dawn states that, ‘Feltmaking has truly opened windows to the world for me and I am grateful for this most wonderful opportunity.’

Dawn’s felt works, articles and tutorials have appeared in the books, ‘Worldwide Colours of Felt’ and ‘1000 Artisan Textiles’, journals and magzines including the International Feltmakers Association journal ‘Felt Matters’, “Fiber Art Now’ magazine, Australia’s ‘Felt’ magazine, and the Russian felt magazine, ‘Felt Fashion’.

In 2012, Dawn, along with great friend, Nicola Brown of Ireland, were honored to be selected to take over the reins of Felt United, a not-for-profit group of international artists (now numbering over 7,000) whose goal is to connect feltmakers around the globe. Felt United is celebrated annually on the first Saturday of October, uniting feltmakers through various forms of celebrating all things felt.

In addition to the Signature Artists Cooperative, Dawn is a member of the International Feltmakers Association, Surface Design Association, Handweavers Guild of America.
