September Felt-in 2018

Welcome everyone to our 18/19 programme of felt-ins and workshops. I am looking forward to taking over from Helen and keeping you all updated on the blog, Facebook and Instagram.

Our first open felt-in welcomed existing members and new faces including Michelle, a glass artist from Port Alberni, Canada.

As promised, this year we will be using native fibres and new blends of fibres at our felt-ins. To get things rolling, Elaine lead the felt-in and demonstrated felting with natural Shetland and Blue Faced Leicester fibres.
