Felt-Making Workshop
Discover the ancient art of felt-making in this hands-on workshop led by talented crafter, Linda Scurr.
Felt has been around for thousands of years, first created when ancient civilizations used sheep’s fleece in their shoes for comfort. The combination of water, sweat, and friction from marching led to the creation of durable felt.
In this workshop, you’ll learn the magic of this traditional process and use natural materials to craft your very own 2D felt picture. Guided by our expert instructor, you’ll explore how to turn soft sheep’s fibre into a beautiful, unique work of art.
Whether you’re new to felting or an experienced crafter, this workshop is perfect for anyone looking to learn a new skill and connect with the natural world through creativity.
Places are limited – reserve yours today and experience the joy of crafting with nature.
