Weaving our way through November!

Ann McCullough was taking the November Felt in showing us how to weave pre felts, in to colourful tartan felt! However before Ann started we had our show and tell!
In the show and tell some of the girls brought along their garments form the Katia Mokeyeva workshop! The work was amazing, above is Maria modelling Dorothy's fantastic piece of work!
Dorothy's garment from the back!


Here is Ann wearing her own garment, she made hers with a collar!
Afterwards Ann gave her demonstration and had a great supply of samples, which gave us inspiration on a cold and snowy morning! she also brought along a cushion and bag she had made using the woven prefelts and they were fabulous!
Beautiful piece by Elaine McCombe.

Barbara Finlay was excelling herself using interesting variation of prefelts and some silk, I would love to see this when is was fully felted!
Bronwen weaving lime green and black into a striking piece!
We had a great morning and it was lovely to see so many inspite of the weather.

Our next felt in is on the 19th December and Gail Cooke will be working incorporating curls into our work which should be fun! It will then be followed by our lite Christmas lunch, so we hope to see you all there!
This photo shows freshly dyed sheep that run in view of the highway near Bathgate, Scotland. The farmer has been dying his sheep with Non Toxic dye since 2007 to entertain passing motorists!Hope this made you smile!
