Tutor: Penny Rowland Hill of Pengwyn Designs
Come and create your very own piece of fabric, using an assortment of brightly coloured wool fibres, and learn the fun technique of wet-felting to produce a picture of your own design.
Wet-felting involves the creation of a fabric using the combination of wool fibres, soap, water and friction – AKA elbow grease!!
It is a magical craft and the possibilities are endless.
All equipment and materials provided.
Suitable for all levels from beginners to more advanced.
Tea & Coffee available throughout the day for a small donation.
If a workshop you'd like to do is fully booked ring Box Office (01805 624624) to be added to the waiting list, you might be lucky! This also helps us ascertain the demand for particular workshops when programming.
