Join felt artist Claire Priestley, member of the International Feltmakers Association for a full-day workshop designed for complete beginners as well as those wishing to refine their felting skills. Over the course of the day, you’ll explore a range of traditional wet and needle felting techniques to create a beautiful felted landscape. Using soft Merino wool, you’ll learn how to incorporate luxurious fibres such as mulberry and sari silks, Angelina fibres, nepps, and curly locks to add texture and depth. Once your piece is dry, you’ll enhance it further with needle felting, embroidery, and embellishment transforming your work into a unique and expressive piece of art. Throughout the workshop, Claire will offer personal guidance, practical tips, and creative encouragement, helping you produce something truly special and individual.
