Make a Wet Felted Picture, Stratford upon Avon, Thursday 31 July 2025, 10-12.30 pm
Venue Details: Dolphin House Arts Centre, Sanctus Street, Stratford upon Avon, Warwickshire,CV37 6DH
Work in a lovely studio setting with textile artist, Penny Dixon. Have a relaxing session learning about wool and its properties. Learn how to lay beautiful soft merino wool to make a wet felted picture. You will experience how the direction of the wool affects how the fibres lock and affect the picture. You will also enjoy working with a lovely variety of colours to create a fabulous piece of art. No drawing or painting skills are required and you can even go abstract if you wish!
Using soap and water you will agitate the fibres and with guidance will find out the different stages of whether your felt is ready. You may wish to put your picture on the wall at home or use as a functional mat. Either way you will be delighted with the end result.
Suitable for beginners and those who have felted before. If possible please bring a large towel to work on and a waterproof bag to take damp work home in.
