Felt Making Classes - Textile Art
Ancient techniques, Contemporary designs in Felt making
Weekly
classes will begin on Tuesday 9th September
in Kilpedder, Co. Wicklow,
(near Greystones)
Time: 10.30am until 1pm.
(Other class times available on
request).
We
will experiment with a range of felt making techniques including Nuno,
Shibori, and working with templates to make beautiful vessels, bags or
any 3d shape that can be applied to felt to create striking
three-dimensional effects in your felted fabric. The main focus is on
experimentation and discovery.
Inspired
by beauty in simple form, Nessa’s style brings together her love and
fascination of the natural world and felt making in sculptural form.
Nessa
has been exploring and teaching shibori and nuno felting techniques in
her more recent works and is particularly interested in the contemporary
approach of binding metal pieces with delicate fibres such as silk and
lace with wool.
These classes are suitable for beginner to advanced felt-makers of all levels
Classes cost €25 and include coffee, tea and cake.
