The day at Greens Mill was unfortunately postponed but Patricia and I had a wonderful days felting instead here in Shipley. Patricia designed and created a 3Dpiece making an amazing case for her Native American flute and I made a bag to put Gogo's in, for a birthday present. we enjoyed a great day and the pieces felting really well - our energy levels must have been really topped up!

Felting at Greens Mill, Sneinton, Nottingham
On a traditional wet summers day, we enjoyed a lovely mornings felting at the picturesque Greens Windmill in Sneinton. A gorgeous venue for felting and I hope the first of many workshops there, as it has to be one of my most favourite places in Nottingham. We took our inspiration that day from Mother Nature herself and produced the most beautiful wall-hangings containing images of tomato laden vines, fields of pumpkins, fushias, ferns and pansies (not to mention Esme's lovely design of a more graphical nature)

Felt Making
Just wanted to share experiences of making felt with other felters or those who are curious enough to have a go at this amazing craft. From a heap of beautiful soft fluffy stuff arises something wonderfully instant, substantial and useful not to mention wonderfully creative even if you think you haven't got an artistic bone in your body!!
