Hello reader

What overwhelming support!

Not only is Sharn's Magical Slippers sold out but Sue's Nuno Hats sold out in an incredible 3 days. That is brilliant. As you know we have been playing our calendar by ear this year in an endeavour to minimise any COVID affects. This maneuvering means we have an extra workshop up our sleeves for April 2nd and we will be hosting Soosie Jobson teaching Studio Detritus: Raising the Surface. As a thank you to the membership and hopefully to inspire you to get back into felting we are only charging $20 for this amazing workshop. Soosie will be covering a wide range of skills and techniques to raise the surface of your felt. Jump in quick cos at this price the spots will fly - full details on the web site link below.

There are places left in the Beginners Workshop March 19th and 2 Skill Extension workshops open for bookings. Mini Vessels is all about using multiple resists and Prefelts & Batts will cover the many ways to make them and use them.

Have a great weekend.

See you soon.

Studio Detritus: Raising the Surface with Soosie Jobson

Raising the surface of your felt creates texture, depth and interest.  Over the years felters have pushed the boundaries of embellishing felt finding new and innovative ways whilst using a range of materials and methods.  In this one day workshop we will make samples exploring the many techniques available to us whilst using treasures from our stashes, found items, and/or repurposing those UFOs (UnFinished Objects).

Skill Extension - Prefelts & Batts

Learn all about the different stages of a prefelt from a light to firm prefelt and how they all give different results. We will also learn how to make wet, dry and needle felted prefelts.  In this experimental workshop we will make sample squares that show how to use prefelts to get sharp or soft edges on your design, to blend colours and get raised surface patterns.

Skill Extension - Mini Vessel Multi Resists

In this workshop we will encase a resist inside another resist, inside another resist to create a beautiful multi-layered small bowl. It’s a great exercise for practicing using a resist, and for stretching the mind to visualise how to form a complex three dimensional shape from flat resists.
