Well we have made through another lockdown so I'm sure you are all itching to do some felting. As you know we had to cancel Pam De Groot's workshop but we still have the Craft House Hall to use. Thank you for those who made suggestions and although we didn't have enough time to organise full workshops we have placed those ideas on the 2022 Wishlist. But what we are having is -
|
Finish & Fix Prep & Plan Feltathon
Thursday 15th & Friday 16th July 10am - 3pm
It gives us the perfect opportunity to:
|
- Finish that workshop piece.
- Fix those pieces – be it an adjustment, repair or repurposing.
- Nut out your ideas and designs that need some preparation – want to make something but can’t quite figure out the resist?
- Plan a piece - maybe to try out those amazing embellishments we have learnt over the years?
- Make a large project but just don’t know where to start?
- Not happy with the piece you made in the workshop would like to make another
- Or just want to come and felt or stitch?
|
Doesn’t matter – this is an open event just come and do! Join us for one or two days – whatever you can manage in your busy week – for felting, stitching, chat and cuppas. We will put our collective felting brains together to produce some amazing pieces.
