Fun at September Felt-in - all wrapped up in cocoons!!

Gail's seaside creations using cocoons and throwsters waste


Saturday was our first felt in of the year and it was all go!  Apart from sorting our membership fees, it was great catching up with everyone, meeting some new faces and seeing some of the projects members had worked on over the summer.  The Show n Tell  produced lots of lovely work.


Jane tells us about her project where she used recycled fabric to create a lining and handles

Anne and Deirdre talk about their beautifully felted bags and we see Sarah's lovely scarf


Those lucky few who had attended the Liz Clay workshop shared some of their beautiful creations and there was great excitement about learning how to use patterns and stitching to create some lovely pieces

Ann telling us about how she created her scarf at the Liz Clay workshop


Ann models Deirdre's gorgeous creation


The work session led by Gail was all about incorporating de-gummed silk cocoons and throwsters waste into felt 

Gail's delighted with all the lovely samples

























      


Congratulations to everyone and look forward to our next session
