Immerse yourself in a mindful and tactile creative experience as we explore the magic of wet felting through the theme of waves and water textures.
In this inspiring workshop, you'll learn to capture the energy, movement and calm of water using richly coloured wools, silks, and fibres – layering them to build beautiful depth, light, and flow.
We'll cover key techniques for beginners and returning felters alike, from choosing and blending colours, to laying fibres for texture and shaping, to using warm soapy water and gentle pressure to transform loose fibres into a richly felted artwork.
Expect to explore rolling surf, crashing waves or gentle ripples – there's no right or wrong outcome, just an opportunity to express your creativity and enjoy the process in a relaxed and supportive setting.
All equipment and materials provided, including:
A wide selection of wool roving in oceanic and coastal tones
Silk fibres, bamboo tops and locks for shimmer, texture and flow
Netting and bubble wrap for rolling and shaping
Warm soapy water and felting mats
Aprons and towels (though feel free to bring your own if preferred)
You’ll leave with:
Your own wet felted 2D waves-inspired landscape, full of colour and motion – perfect for framing, gifting, or using as a base for further stitch work.
Whether you're curious to try wet felting for the first time or looking to deepen your practice, this workshop is designed to be welcoming, creative, and full of inspiration. Refreshments included, with time to chat and connect as we work. Bring a packed lunch or local cafes and shops nearby. Parking available in public carparks a few minutes from the venue.
