Black Sheep Designs web site
Copyright and Terms of Use

Introduction
Black Sheep Designs is a very small family business focused on feltmaking. We make and market hand-felted creations, feltmaking workshops and instruction, and felting supplies and hope to make a little money doing it. We like helping to spread the joys of quality crafts widely. While this statement of terms and conditions may sound a bit legalistic, its intent is simple: to enable individuals to pursue the personal pleasures of feltmaking while offering us a modicum of protection for the work we have put into our business.

    A well-known problem area on web sites concerns the accurate reproduction of color.

However, the actual colors you see may vary greatly depending on your monitor and on other aspects of Internet technology. Where color is critical in the purchase of any fiber, please request a sample prior to ordering.
