Feltmaking
Feltmaking Workshops
Making a feltwork from wool fibres is a great way to explore your creativity and is just a great way to relax and have fun. Harvest has been making felt for a number of years and will help you to learn the various techniques needed to make your own unique piece of art to take away. You will have the opportunity to explore and use a myriad of amazing colours and textures and be encouraged to set yourself free with expression, in an explosion of creative wellbeing. During an introduction to feltmaking you will work with colourful woolfibres, taking inspiration from the surrounding landscapes to create your own special artwork or felt journal cover to take home and treasure. Cost: a half-day introduction to feltmaking costs £55 (including materials), Shorter children's courses are available at £25.
