Recently she has worked directly with whole fleeces sourced from sheep farmers. This has brought her into a closer relationship with the raw materials and the people who produce it\, deepening her understanding of wool in its natural state. Working in this way led Emma to develop a greater appreciation for the intrinsic qualities of undyed wool – its subtle tones\, tactile richness and natural scent. In response\, she has developed a new body of work that celebrates the enduring qualities of this ancient fibre and highlights its natural beauty.” \nExhibition Opening / Private View: Thursday 30th April 2026 7pm – 9pm\nArtist Talk: Wednesday 6th May 2026 6:30pm\nMore information and Artist Talk bookings at : www.nook-gallery.co.uk/pages/exhibitions\nExhibition Dates: 30th April – 10th May 2026\nLocation: nook gallery\, 25c Institute Road\, Kings Heath\, Birmingham\, B14 7EG URL:https://www.feltmakers.com/event/ancient-fibre-new-journey-exhibition/ LOCATION:nook gallery\, 25c Institute Road\, Birmingham\, West Midlands\, B14 7EG\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:In Person ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.feltmakers.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/2.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Emma Jackson (Silversoles)":MAILTO:info@silversoles.co.uk END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20260504 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20260509 DTSTAMP:20260430T004616 CREATED:20260310T084721Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260310T084721Z UID:10003859-1777852800-1778284799@www.feltmakers.com SUMMARY:Gefilzte Wandobjekte – Natur als Inspiration und Lehrmeisterin (Kurs mit Dagmar Binder) DESCRIPTION:bei Wollknoll\, Oberrot\, Germany\n4.-8. Mai 2026\n(Voraussetzungen: Grundkenntnisse im Filzen\, Erfahrungen mit Schablonen können hilfreich sein) \nFilz ist ein wunderbares Material für eindrucksvolle\, dekorative Raumobjekte.\nIn der Natur finden wir eine Vielzahl von interessanten Formen und Strukturen\, die uns als Inspiration und Ausgangspunkt für eine Filzarbeit dienen können. Zudem lassen sich pfiffige architektonische Lösungen beobachten\, die zur Stabilität beitragen und die auch bei der Planung und Gestaltung eines Textilobjekts sehr hilfreich sein können.\nIn diesem Workshop gehen wir gemeinsam durch den gesamten Prozeß\, von der Idee bis zum fertigen Wandbehang\, und schauen uns verschiedene Wege an\, ein natürliches Modell in ein textiles Objekt zu verwandeln. Schritt für Schritt werden Sie Ihren Entwurf entwickeln\, geeignete Materialien auswählen\, die Form und Anordnung der Schablonen planen und schließlich Ihr ganz persönliches Kunstwerk filzen.\nIn einer Experimentierphase erkunden wir verschiedene Möglichkeiten für 3-dimensionale Filzformen\, die als Übung und Grundlage für eigene Projekte dienen können. Anschließend stehen uns 3 Tage für die Umsetzung individueller Arbeiten zur Verfügung.\nBasierend auf meiner langjährigen Erfahrung im skulpturalen Filzen berate und unterstütze ich Sie bei der Auswahl geeigneter Materialien und Techniken und begleite Sie durch den Filzprozess.\nWährend des Schaffens werden wir technische Details der unterschiedlichen Projekte genauer beleuchten\, Ideen und Lösungsmöglichkeiten für kritische Situationen zusammentragen. In der Gruppe können wir viel voneinander lernen\, verschiedene Werke im Werden beobachten und daraus sicher alle einen reichen Erfahrungsschatz mitnehmen.

These can be opened later to form an expressive structure with inside – outside contrasts.\nA well-planned layout will already predetermine in which way you can transform and shape your felt object in the end. We’ll have a look at the characteristics of batts\, prefelt\, tops and their interaction\,\nand see which combination and setting of resists can give you the best spatial effect.\nTogether we will discuss technical details\, options and try to find solutions for tricky situations. This way\, all participants can learn from each other\, understand parallels and differences of several\nsituations in the felting process and find more confidence in their personal creative practice.\n(Participants should have at least basic knowledge about the foundations of felting. Some experience in working with resists can be helpful. If you have only little experience\, you can start with a more simple\, small size object.)

Participants will make partially felted sheets of fiber from varying thicknesses and states of structural integrity to cut and apply strategically in their fiber layout. Studies will focus on perimetral agitation to raise form from a single 2D plane\, sculpt a variety of hollow forms from a circular template and expand on possibilities with altered template shapes. Proper fulling\, the thickness of the wall in relationship to its surface area and interior volume and the amount of and placement of denser areas of partial felt as structural support will determine the forms integrity. Hand stitched structural ribbing\, steam blocking and shellac stiffening will be addressed to further refine the form’s posture and presence.

These high impact necklaces are very light to wear. We will use two different 3D techniques\, one making asymmetric”pebbles” and one making round beads with a fabric wrapping to create nunofelt beads. This is small scale wet felting\, no rolling of the felt involved\, and can be done on a small table. This course is suitable for beginners and more experienced felters.\nThere will be step-by step demonstration of all techniques and examples will be on display. The course covers design ideas\, surface colour\, pattern and texture as well as finishing techniques to turn your felt into unique wearable art.\nThere will be a materials charge of £10 which covers fibres\, and jewellery findings to fasten the necklaces.

While the felt is drying we will learn how to make fun and funky necklaces or festival headbands using up scraps of felt and fabrics together with odd buttons and beads. This is a great way to use up your stash ! After lunch\, when the felt is dry we will learn how to turn the felt into flat beads to create necklaces from your unique designer felt. Once learned\, this technique can be used with any thin fabric and can be a great way to use up short lengths or recycle well loved garments into wearable art.

Using a combination of yarns of different sizes\, textures\, and fiber content\, we will break just about every weaving rule to create a delicate web of cloth. The yarns don’t need to shrink in this process because the wool roving shingled to the finished cloth does that job. We’ll spend one day weaving and the next felting. Any weight cloth can be made from Louisiana appropriate attire to ski weather warm. Best of all the sky is the limit with color and you’ll get textures no other process replicates. We’ll make a table sized piece that can be used as a scarf or cut up for other uses.

Think of it instead as a hybrid between a sculpture studio\, an artist residency\, and a troubleshooting clinic—a focussed development space designed for felt makers who already have a practice and want time\, space\, and expert guidance to deepen it.\nThis is a place to slow down\, experiment\, problem-solve\, and refine. A place where unfinished work is welcome\, uncertainty is productive\, and play is taken seriously. A place designed to help you move your felt work forward with confidence and clarity.\nThis Open Lab supports you in resolving unfinished work\, strengthening sculptural decisions\, and deepening your understanding of form\, structure\, and surface. You bring the work; together we identify what it needs next.\nThe Lab offers dedicated studio time\, access to equipment\, professional insight\, and a supportive peer environment. It is ideal if you are already working on your own felt sculpture\, mask\, or other 3D felted form and need space to focus\, alongside experienced guidance when questions arise.\nBring your unfinished or unresolved sculptural projects—especially those that have left you stuck\, frustrated\, or unsure how to proceed—and we will work through them together. Rather than following a set brief\, you’ll be supported in developing your ideas\, forms\, and sculptural language. \nThis format allows for far more time spent on sculpting and refinement than a standard taught workshop\, making it especially valuable for those wanting to push their work further.

Drawing on extensive sculptural experimentation\, she has developed a distinctive approach that combines felt with a variety of materials to enrich texture and form. \nThis course invites participants to explore the creation of different hat forms — folded ornamental hats\, flat caps\, bohemian caps\, hoods\, and hats embellished with pleated silk — while experimenting with the qualities and behavior of local wools in 3D felting. \nThrough the development of samples\, participants will learn how to design and structure a project\, selecting appropriate fibers\, resists\, and techniques. The aim is to build an independent working method\, enabling participants to plan and carry out future textile projects in line with artistic or functional goals.
