A fun day workshop suited to complete beginners. Experiment and explore wet felt-making with a variety of wool and plant fibres. Learn how to use carders to make a colourful textural felted picture.
Held in my Studio in Fletchers Mill at Dean Clough, Halifax, West Yorkshire.
Lots of samples of felt making. We start with a practical demonstration of felt-making, an exploration of all the different wool and plant fibres that I have available for you to use.
