I've been using sushi rollers to transport my brushes since art school, finally decided to make my own brush-roll-up.

Wet felting is the process of using soap, hot water and mechanical agitation to coax wool fibres to knit together. I dyed some burlap and cheesecloth to work into the fibres as well, 'cause I love texture.

Here's a pic of the inside — all criticism for brush care can go to my twelve year old niece.

Thanks! Yes, I'm very medieval-fairy-chic. The brush-roll-up is a classic way to keep your tips in ship-shape and your handles from snapping during transport. Lots of folks use canvas or leather, I just happen to do a lot of felting — It's a fairly forgiving, low-barrier art form if you want to try it out.
