MEREDITH — The League of New Hampshire Craftsmen Meredith Fine Craft Gallery invites people to step into a world of imagination this fall with a new collection of needle-felted woodland creatures and ghosts by juried-in fiber artist Katie Pugliese. Each piece is handcrafted from soft wool fibers, transformed through intricate felting techniques into charming little figures full of personality and warmth.

From racoons sweeping with tiny brooms to squirrels and chipmunks carrying little pumpkins, and mice relaxing with gentle turtles watching the spirited felted ghosts, Pugliese’s creations are all ready to cozy up and celebrate the whimsical autumn season together. These one-of-a-kind figures look like they could have stepped straight out of a classic storybook or fairytale, bringing with them that same feeling of childhood wonder.

Pugliese began needle felting in 2016 and continues to challenge her creative imagination by being inspired by the wonders of nature that surrounds her. Her needle felting brings to life these little spirits of the forest, with each one developing its own expression as she works.
