A day working with raw sheep fleece to make a natural, sheep friendly and sustainable seat pad. The fleece seat pads make a beautiful feature in any home and can be used to create cosy chair pad, bench mats or made into cushions, keeping your warm & comfortable, especially in the winter months. They also make stunning wall hangings, or can be used as luxury pet beds.

This is a great introduction to learning how to work with raw fleece and less physically demanding than making a whole fleece rug. The bonus is you will be helping to support British farmers by making use of the fleeces they shear, the sheep enjoy their annual hair cut, you learn news skills and take home a beautiful work of art!

During the day you will learn how to;
*Prepare the raw fleece – skirting, dagging & removing vegetable matter
*Layout a backing
*Shape & Bind the fleece together using soap, water & elbow grease
*Scour and wash out the lanolin and field dirt
*Dry & Finish the fleece in two different methods
