Yesterday morning I attended a felting workshop at the WEA Centre. This is my creation. We learnt how to make a flat piece of felt with wool roving, silk/alpaca, warm soapy water and bubble wrap. It was a surprisingly strenuous activity! We also learnt how to make felt beads. I think I am going to make my felt into a clutch purse with some surface embroidery. Next Saturday we will be making a bigger project and learning how to make seamless hats, bags and shoes!

Hello Heather - that felt looks great. It must be really hard work. I remember seeing some footage of people making it in Turkey - throwing their bodies onto it. Lovely colours.
