Maria started her workshop by showing us some of her lovely work, which was very inspirational, this is a view of the countryside near where Maria lives, the colours of the hills were beautiful!
Maria had a great variety of styles in her designs to show, and they were an interesting insight into what can be achieved.
Beneficial lessons were given on the mechanics for hanging the wall hangings once completed.
Two of the ladies selecting their colours for their design!
Concentration!
A few of the pieces at the end of the day! Everyone went home very pleased with what they had learnt and produced!
Next Saturday Feltmakers North is holding its usual Felt in and we are learning how to card wool with Sarah, so bring along your old wool and your carders if you have some!
Also a reminder to those of you who are not members that there is an exhibition of members work opening in the Island Arts Centre, Lisburn on the 11th April, 2013 and the exhibition will run until the end of April. We hope you will call in and have a look, all the work has been made by members since joining Feltmakers North!
Thanks for sharing this information. If only I were somewhere near, I would gladly attend. It is a great opportunity to see beautiful pieces of artworks and maybe get inspirations from them.
