Our Unique Feltmaking Mill
One year after opening our feltmaking mill for courses, our programme is going from strength to strength.
Moral Fibre is the only Mill in the country devoted to the art of feltmaking, and whether you want to learn feltmaking from scratch or develop your skills and learn more, we have a course which will inspire you and send you home with lots of new techniques and tips. Follow the links above to find out more details about each course.

We have invited tutors from all over the UK and Europe so that we can bring you the very best from experienced and talented feltmakers who are passionate about their craft and about helping you to develop your artistic and technical abilities.

Beautiful surroundings
If you love feltmaking you will love our Mill! The converted barn which is home to our carding and feltmaking equipment is light, spacious and welcoming. Best of all, you will be surrounded by wonderful fibres of every kind. It’s a haven for anyone who wants to learn more about how different fibres can be used to the best effect. We have lots of experience and can save you days of trial and error by sharing our knowledge of the various sheep breeds and how their fleece performs.

We stock a gorgeous range of dyed colours too, and all kinds of sumptuous fabrics that you can use to develop your feltmaking repertoire.

Inspiration and expertise
Book a place on one of our courses and you will get a full day (or weekend!) of intensive learning. We are committed to ensuring that our courses are value for money and that you find out all you need to know. We want you to go home buzzing with ideas and even after the course is over we will be here to answer any questions you may have.

Here at Moral Fibre we believe in having as much fun as possible – meaning more time being creative and less time on repetitive tasks. We guess you feel the same and so we’ve gone out of our way to make this happen.

Why our feltmaking courses are special:

You get to use our purpose made batts - big sheets of evenly carded fibre of any thickness you want - saving lots of time laying out the fibre.
You can use our new flat bed wet felting machine. It takes the hard work out of preparing felt, leaving you more time to work on ideas and develop your creativity. No need to feel daunted by making large pieces.
You can use our needle felting machines to add beautiful detail to your work.

A creative break
All in all, we are sure that you will learn something new with us while having a great time. To ensure that your creative juices keep flowing, we will keep you supplied with tea, coffee and delicious cakes. Ludlow is a beautiful town, famed for its architecture and its food. We can recommend a lunchtime exploration of the delis and cafés you will find tucked away in medieval alleyways and courtyards … if you can drag yourself away from the Mill that is!.
