Creative inspirations in felt

Feltmaking Workshops in Cornwall

 Workshops are Coming up in 2012


Basic Feltmaking 1-day workshop - begin at the beginning!

10.30am to 4.pm

Cost £25  plus a small charge for wools used*

On the Basic Feltmaking 1-day workshop you will make a flat piece of colourful felt which can be framed as a picture, made into a wall hanging or sewn into a cushion cover. You start off by learning about wool, where it comes from and some essential terms, before moving quickly on to the technique of wet felting - starting with a demonstration and then hands-on practice. After laying out, soaking, soaping and rolling your wool you will end up with your own piece of hand made felt fabric.

You will learn how to make a seamless 3 dimensional piece of felt by joining flat shapes while they are wet. This method has many applications and is essential if you want to go on to make hats or clothing. On this day you will be able to make a bag, a tea cosy or a pot/cafeteria cover.

Nuno Scarves 1-day workshop -  introducing the nuno technique

10.30am to 4.pm

Cost £30 plus a small charge for wools used*

On this workshop you can make a fine floaty summer scarf or something a bit warmer for winter. The nuno technique uses a piece of very thin net material felted in to the wool so that the resulting fabric is fine and hangs like cloth but is strong and flexible. Again, this is an essential workshop if you want to go on to make felt clothing.
