"FIBRE AS ART": Full Day Workshop

Make your own Felt Wall-Hanging

Hen's Teeth Trading, Cobram, Victoria.

Saturday 29th September, 10am - 4pm

$95 All materials + light refreshments included.

DESCRIPTION:

In a full day workshop, participants will learn about the natural properties of locally sourced sheep wool and it’s creative possibilities - including handmade felt. Jess will explain and demonstrate the process of felt making, leading each participant through two unique projects. The first project utilises various felting techniques such as wet-felting, using pre-felts, cutting and stitching to create a triptych artwork. Students will then apply their new skills, fuelled by creative inspiration, to create their second project – a felt wall-hanging for their very own wall.

This workshop is designed to be hands-on, interactive and collaborative. All materials will be supplied and light refreshments will also be included. Please bring your own lunch, or a small plate to share.
