Join felt artist Marian May and create your own wet felt art Beach or Flower border picture.
Marian will bring a variety of coloured merino wools, dyed silks, threads and other fibres used to create a richly textured wool picture. You will learn how to lay out the fibres, blend colours, create shapes and then use the wet felting technique which involves warm soapy water, and some rockin’ and rollin’. You can choose between a beach scene or a floral scene, and you may wish to bring a photo to work from for inspiration. There will be some shells and sea glass which you could include either by stitching or adding into the wool layers. A machine embroidery demonstration will be available on request (if there is time) but your piece will need to be embroidered at home on your own machine when your felt is dry.
Marian is a visiting tutor from Suffolk for 2020, these photographs are all her own work.
Wed 14th April 2021 ~ Sunday 3rd October 2021
Kindly note there will be a materials charge payable directly to the tutor on the day, of approx £15 for the materials being used.. Typically this course runs with around 9 students.
Please bring: Marian will bring the materials needed. Please bring two old towels, rubber gloves if you need them, and 2 plastic bags for wet towels and felt on your return journey. Please bring your materials charge money for the tutor on the day ~ thank you.
