A new season of felting workshops has begun!  You can find the postings on The Fibre Garden website under "workshops".  There is a new Felt Art workshop, "painting" with wool and fibres.  You can bring a photo you love, like the scene below.... Nature, scenery, landscapes, houses...  Most outdoor photos.  Bring your photo and I will guide you through recreating the image in wool, and also trading tips on how extra stitches can make the artwork pop!
 Again, we will have the intense two day vest workshop.  This one will teach working over a custom resist to make the seamless garment.  We will use sari silk and fine merino batts and fibres to make it special. 
 The classic nuno felt scarf workshop is back.  Always popular, you can design colours and textures to make it your own wearable art, fusing silk fabric or silk hankies with fine merino wool fibres.
You can never have too many of these!
It's back to felting time!  See you at a workshop soon.....

Here is a sneak peek at my latest art project....  I made a huge sheet of nuno felt in all the autumn leaf colours.  With merino wool and hand dyed silk hankies...

 Close up of a couple of the leaves.  I used a maple leaf as the cut out pattern.
 This is a photo of the felt before wetting and working to a firm felt finish.
Finished project?  Wait and see....
