Tutor: Penny Rowland Hill of Pengwyn Designs
Come and create your very own piece of fabric, using an assortment of brightly coloured wool fibres, and learn the fun technique of wet-felting to produce a picture of your own design.
Wet-felting involves the creation of a fabric using the combination of wool fibres, soap, water and friction – AKA elbow grease!!
It is a magical craft and the possibilities are endless.
All equipment and materials provided.
Suitable for all levels from beginners to more advanced.
Tea & Coffee available throughout the day for a small donation.
