I have a sad announcement today. Maureen Harding of Dreamspin Fibres Passed away on Sunday November 24. Her Husband Rod asked that I announce it to let everyone know. She wanted everyone to know how much she valued everyone’s friendship and support over the years. I know I would not be as good a felter if it had not been for Mo. I will dearly miss her.

Am I right in thinking that Maureen had only just retired from her business? She made some beautiful items - there is a small slideshow of some of them at the end of this blog post from 2014. Sad news indeed.

You are right. She closed the business because of her health. She had IPF (Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis). She retired from nursing years ago and started the fibre business.

Sad news. I. Bought from Dreamspin and Maureen and her husband were always so nice. She’ll be missed by many I'm sure. My condolences to her family.

So sad to lose one of our felting fraternity my thoughts are with her family & all those who knew her. I've just seen the blog post from 2014 that Lyn kindly provided the link to....lovely work, & reading the comments a very generous lady.

Sorry I got the diagnosis wrong I said COPD and it was IPF (Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis) I changed it in the original post so it is now correct.
Rod Wanted me to thank everyone for their kind words.
