Felt vessels
This is an ideal beginners’ felting workshop. Come along and learn the basics of wet felt making.
During the course of this workshop you will learn the process of wet felting and use a plastic resist to create either a 3D form or a simple purse/case.
You do need to bring an old large towel and an apron but otherwise all working materials and felting wool are included and there will be a selection of colours to choose from.
People do cancel and we do hold waiting lists. If the date you would like is full please do contact us and we can add you to the list.
