Join Shelley for an immersive and hands-on workshop where you will explore the fascinating art of wet felting and create your own beautiful felted flowers. In this class, you'll delve into the rich history of felt-making, discovering how ancient techniques have influenced and inspired modern wet felting methods.
Step-by-step, you'll be guided through the entire process of wet felting, from laying out the foundation to designing and shaping your flowers using fine merino wool rovings. Shelley will provide expert demonstrations and individualised guidance, ensuring that you develop a solid understanding of the craft and achieve stunning results.
