Discover the magic of felt making and treat your feet to a pair of woolly slippers in the process.
Using Polwarth wool, you will learn the basics of wet felting including layering, shaping, embellishment and sizing.
Tutorage is by Jane Bear β a Colac fibre artist with 30 years experience with felting. Jane has enjoyed developing 3D felted wool pieces for CrossXpollenatioN Fibre Arts Exhibition in Colac while advancing her craft by participating in Grampians Arts and Fibre Forum Geelong each year.
Janeβs Diploma of Textiles and eagerness to help local groups discover the joy of felting sets the workshop up for a casual and informative session.
Like all good things, the felting process requires you to put in the elbow grease. So be ready for a bit of repetitive work using your hands and arms!
Suitable for ages 16 upwards.
