SUMMARY:Pleated Felt Scarves with Mandy Nash
DESCRIPTION:Based on Canadian smocking\, these techniques do not lend themselves to a real time workshop. Therefore\, I have chosen to offer a demonstration where I  explain three different pleating techniques and how to apply them to make scarves. The Zoom recording is available for students to watch repeatedly. I explain how to prepare felt for the pleating\, how to create the pleats and finish with various dyeing methods.

SUMMARY:Slash/Reveal with Mandy Nash
DESCRIPTION:During this workshop\, participants experiment with Bergschaf wool batts to create a colourful flat sample using the ‘Slash /Reveal’ technique.\nSuitable for those with some felting experience\, I demonstrate the technique so participants can make along with me\, experimenting with Bergschaf wool batts to create a colourful slashed piece.  This wool felts easily but is much stronger than merino wool so is ideal for slashing and creating sculptural work. The technique can be adapted to add to hats\, vessels etc….\nThere is also a short ½ hour Zoom introductory session to allow students to prepare the right equipment and materials.\nBoth recordings are freely available for students to watch again and take notes.\nAn equipment and materials list is available after receipt of payment.

SUMMARY:Kaleidoscope Dish with Mandy Nash
DESCRIPTION:Learn how to use multiple resists and make a dish  – perfect for containing chocolates! And you can use it afterwards to keep your trinkets tidy. There are infinite variations to this technique and it is suitable for most wool types. An introductory session before the workshop  instructs students on how to make their resists to create various shapes. Any wool is suitable for this technique but the result will vary depending on your choice.

SUMMARY:Experiment with Fabrics to Felt with
DESCRIPTION:The aim of the workshop is to create a nuno sampler incorporating at least 5 types of fabric with merino wool. Our objective will be to work with a variety of fabrics to experience\, observe and record\n*The handle of each fabric\n*The fabric structure\n*How each fabric interacts with the wool fibres as its laid out and goes through the stages of bonding with the fibres (pre-felt and fulled)\n*Share tips & good practice when making nuno felt. \nThe sampler you make can be used for future reference or made into a notebook cover or other item after the workshop. \nNotes & fabric will be mailed out to UK participants who book before 14th April. If you miss the deadline or are based further afield than the UK the notes can be emailed to you and you can make use of the fabrics you have available to you in your stash. We will send you information on the fabrics we will using ahead of the session. Zoom meeting booking details will be sent out to those booking.\nRegion 9 Workshop – other members welcome. The fee is £5 to cover cost of postage\, notes\, fabric & wool.\nIf you have any questions or would like to book please contact Emma via region9rc@icloud.com

SUMMARY:Resist-based Pendants: Hollow Forms\, Dimensional Surfaces & Object Encasement By Lisa Klalulak
DESCRIPTION:Participants will explore 3D techniques for creating unique small scale pendants with hanging bails using 2D template resists. \nLearn to encase durable objects to add color\, texture\, material complexity and conceptual relevancy in your work. \nBy simply wrapping fiber around an object\, one doesn’t provide ample space for the fibers to felt and therefore one must employ a resist larger than the object\, which involved just a little calculation! Then\, sculpt hollow form using surface resists to create dimensional planes of felt and embed partial felt within the surface to develop convex protrusions through differential shrinkage.

SUMMARY:3D Honeycomb Vessel
DESCRIPTION:Wet Felting PDF-Tutorail\nLanguage: English\n2 PDF files: one PDF file consists of 45 pages\, 55 large photos in A5 format\, so you can see everything in detail. The other PDF file consists of 16 pages\, 55 small photos\, so you can have a compact overview of everything and print it conveniently. \nDescription:\n– This is a step-by-step PDF tutorial that shows and explains how to felt this 3D honeycomb vessel.\n– You will get exact measurements for the templates and resists to make this 3D object.\n– I show how to get this honeycomb structure\, how many resists you need and exactly how to lay them.\n– I explain what is important\, give tips. You learn what you need to pay attention to\, so that the honeycombs stand at the end and remail in this shape forever.\n– If you put a glass vase in the neck of the vessel\, then you can use this object not only for dried flowers\, but also for the fresh flowers.\n– This tutorial is suitable for both beginners and advanced feltmakers who are looking for an interesting new idea. If you have any questions\, feel free to contact me.

SUMMARY:Online\, DIVERSITY – discovering new species in felt\, Dagmar Binder
DESCRIPTION:Choosing one specific approach to a felting project\, we often don’t notice how many other ways we could have gone from this point and come to different\, often surprising results.\nThis crucial moment implies an incredible potential for new discoveries\, creative solutions and a rich source for learning more about the material and techniques we are using.\nIn this workshop we will take off for an exiting expedition: we will use only one set of resists and explore a variety of ways to develop felt objects from this starting point. Playing with changing positions\, different ways of cutting\, shrinking\, deformation etc. we will dive into the amazing creative potential of felting.\nThe techniques used in this workshop can later be applied to various designs\, fine art\, decorative or wearable objects. \nThere are 3 groups available\, suitable for different time zones. Each one meets on 2 days: \nGr. 1	April 11/12\, 2024 in English 08-11 a.m. (Berlin time = suitable for Europe\, Australia/NZ)\nGr. 2        13./14.

SUMMARY:GLADYS PAULUS: SAMPLES: A LIBRARY OF IDEAS  5 days workshop October 03 to 07\, 2024
DESCRIPTION:During this workshop\, you will make a series of 2-D felt pieces from which small samples (approximately 15 x 15cm) are selected. These will form the jumping off point for a deeper exploration of felt making techniques and effects\, as well as contrast and composition\, and become the basis for a very personal line of inquiry. This workshop is not about achieving a particular outcome\, but rather about the joy of responding in the moment and learning through play\, trial and “error”. It is intended to give you the freedom and time to explore\, experiment that is so often lacking in our daily life\, and to deepen your understanding of the medium. You will develop the beginnings of a reference library of techniques and ideas to enable future projects\, which can continue to grow at home. A wide range of materials may be incorporated into the samples\, and you will be encouraged to think outside the box.

I have named it the matchstick necklace.\nWhen laying out the wool\, we will pay particular attention to the composition of materials and fibre\ndirection\, in order to create a stable felt and firmly enclose the colored section at the lower edge.\nThis allows us to cut many narrow strips later\, with their upper end securely anchored in a collar.\nEverything is felted again to seal the cuts and give the matchsticks an organic and perfect finish.\nIf you don’t like it quite so opulent or would like to practise on a simpler model first\,\nyou may want to start with fewer tiers. Of course\, you can choose your favourite colors. \nN° 25/03 Streichholz Collier (139 €)\nGr. 2         März 15/16\, 2025 in Deutsch 10 – 13 h \nIn diesem Kurs wollen wir einen originellen Halsschmuck filzen\, in dem dichte Büschel von Stäbchen\nmit farbigen Kuppen zu einem Collier verbunden werden. Ich habe es Streichholz Collier getauft.\nBeim Auslegen werden wir besonders auf Materialzusammensetzung und Faserrichtung achten\,\ndamit ein stabiler Filz entsteht\, bei dem auch der farbige Abschnitt am unteren Rand gut haltbar\neingeschlossen ist.\nDas erlaubt uns später viele schmale Streifen zu schneiden\, deren oberes Ende fest in einem\nHalsband verankert ist.

SUMMARY:N° 25/04 Sculptural wallhanging - bark fragment with pitcher plants\, Online workshop with Dagmar Binder
DESCRIPTION:N° 25/04 Sculptural wallhanging – bark fragment with pitcher plants (139 €) \nThere are 3 groups available\, according to different time zones and languages: \nGr. 1      April 10/11\, 2025 in English 08-11 a.m. CEST\nGr. 2     April 12/13\, 2025 in German 10 a.m.- 1 p.m. CEST\nGr. 3     April 12/13\, 2025 in English 06-09 p.m. CEST \nMany of you have been asking for more sculptural felt projects – so here we’ll continue with a new\nseamless 3d creation\, a bark fragment inspired by pitcher plants. Felt develops quiet a strong\npresence in a room. The relatively small dimensions of this sculptural piece (65x30cm) will not at all\ndiminish its effect and allow us to cope with it during one weekend. As always\, I included some\ntechnical themes to enrich your felting skills:\nYou will learn how to add organic forms to a solid background felt in a fluent and natural way. We will\npractise a painterly use of colors that will help to increase the spatial effect. Another important aspect\nare combination of materials and well planned fiber direction to achieve a beautiful natural shape and\nsufficient stability for the pitchers to stand upright. Last not least\, fulling the felt to a firm consistency\nwill give it the perfect finish. \nN° 25/04 Wandskulptur – Borkenstück mit Kannenpflanzen (139 €) \nGr. 2          April 12/13\, 2025 in Deutsch 10 – 13 h \nViele von Euch haben Interesse an weiteren skulpturalen Filzprojekten bekundet – hier geht es also\nweiter mit einer neuen nahtlosen 3d-Kreation\, einem Rindenfragment\, inspiriert von Kannenpflanzen.\nFilz entwickelt eine starke Präsenz im Raum. Die relativ geringen Abmessungen (65x30cm) unseres\nÜbungsstücks schmälern seine Wirkung keineswegs und sind an einem Wochenende zu bewältigen.\nWie immer habe ich einige technische Themen einbezogen\, die Eure Fertigkeiten bereichern sollen:\nIhr werdet lernen\, wie organische Formen fließend und natürlich in einen festen Filzhintergrund\neingefügt werden können. Wir üben den malerischen Einsatz von Farben\, um die räumliche Wirkung\nzu verstärken. Ein weiterer wichtiger Aspekt ist die Kombination von Materialien und eine gut\ngeplante Faserführung\, um eine schöne\, natürliche Form und ausreichend Stabilität zu erzielen\, damit\ndie Kannen aufrecht stehen können. Zu guter Letzt wird der Filz durch Walken zu einer festen\nKonsistenz gebracht\, die ihm das perfekte und ganz organische Finish verleiht.

DESCRIPTION:N° 25/04 Sculptural wallhanging – bark fragment with pitcher plants (139 €) \nThere are 3 groups available\, according to different time zones and languages: \nGr. 1      April 10/11\, 2025 in English 08-11 a.m. CEST\nGr. 2     April 12/13\, 2025 in German 10 a.m.- 1 p.m. CEST\nGr. 3     April 12/13\, 2025 in English 06-09 p.m. CEST \nMany of you have been asking for more sculptural felt projects – so here we’ll continue with a new\nseamless 3d creation\, a bark fragment inspired by pitcher plants. Felt develops quiet a strong\npresence in a room. The relatively small dimensions of this sculptural piece (65x30cm) will not at all\ndiminish its effect and allow us to cope with it during one weekend. As always\, I included some\ntechnical themes to enrich your felting skills:\nYou will learn how to add organic forms to a solid background felt in a fluent and natural way. We will\npractise a painterly use of colors that will help to increase the spatial effect. Another important aspect\nare combination of materials and well planned fiber direction to achieve a beautiful natural shape and\nsufficient stability for the pitchers to stand upright. Last not least\, fulling the felt to a firm consistency\nwill give it the perfect finish. \nN° 25/04 Wandskulptur – Borkenstück mit Kannenpflanzen (139 €) \nGr. 2          April 12/13\, 2025 in Deutsch 10 – 13 h \nViele von Euch haben Interesse an weiteren skulpturalen Filzprojekten bekundet – hier geht es also\nweiter mit einer neuen nahtlosen 3d-Kreation\, einem Rindenfragment\, inspiriert von Kannenpflanzen.\nFilz entwickelt eine starke Präsenz im Raum. Die relativ geringen Abmessungen (65x30cm) unseres\nÜbungsstücks schmälern seine Wirkung keineswegs und sind an einem Wochenende zu bewältigen.\nWie immer habe ich einige technische Themen einbezogen\, die Eure Fertigkeiten bereichern sollen:\nIhr werdet lernen\, wie organische Formen fließend und natürlich in einen festen Filzhintergrund\neingefügt werden können. Wir üben den malerischen Einsatz von Farben\, um die räumliche Wirkung\nzu verstärken. Ein weiterer wichtiger Aspekt ist die Kombination von Materialien und eine gut\ngeplante Faserführung\, um eine schöne\, natürliche Form und ausreichend Stabilität zu erzielen\, damit\ndie Kannen aufrecht stehen können. Zu guter Letzt wird der Filz durch Walken zu einer festen\nKonsistenz gebracht\, die ihm das perfekte und ganz organische Finish verleiht.

SUMMARY:N° 25/05 Sculptural wallhanging – fossil leaf\, Online workshop with Dagmar Binder
DESCRIPTION:There’s 3 groups available\, for different time zones and languages:\nGr. 1 May 08/09\, 2025 in English 08-11 a.m. CEST\nGr. 2 May 10/11\, 2025 in German 10 a.m.- 1 p.m. CEST\nGr. 3 May 10/11\, 2025 in English 06-09 p.m. CEST \nIn this workshop I’d like to introduce another way of creating an impressive structure for a sculptural\nwallhanging. This time we’d assemble a group of hollow chambers and incorporate them in a larger\nitem. They can be opened later and manipulated manually to form an organic seamless felt object.\nThe silhouette of the sculpture will only arise from the arrangement of all individual parts.\nWe’d pay special attention to fiber combination and directions to connect all parts securly and\nprepare the material for specific shaping and deformations. With a well planned use of color through\nall layers we can even increase the dimensional effect.\nAs an example I developed this fossil leaf project for you. It will allow us to discuss and practise all\nworking steps included and enable you to apply the technique to a variety of individual felt works in\nthe future. \nN° 25/05 Wandskulptur – Blattfossil\, Online\, Mai 2025 \nIn diesem Kurs möchte ich eine andere Möglichkeit vorstellen\, wie eine eindrucksvolle Struktur für ein\nWandobjekt erzeugt werden kann. Wir wollen diesmal eine Gruppe von Hohlräumen vorbereiten\,\ndiese zu einer grösseren Form zusammensetzen und nahtlos miteinander verbinden. Die Kammern\nwerden später geöffnet\, umgeformt und von Hand in eine organische Form modelliert.\nDie Konturen der Skulptur werden sich erst aus der Anordnung aller Einzelteile ergeben.\nWir schauen uns speziell das Zusammenwirken verschiedener Materialien und die Faserführung an\,\num alle Teile sicher zu verbinden und das Filzgut gezielt für Umformungen vorzubereiten. Auch der\nEinsatz von Farben durch alle Schichten hindurch will gut durchdacht sein und kann die räumliche\nWirkung erheblich verstärken.\nAls Beispiel habe ich ein Blattfossil für Euch vorbereitet\, an dem wir alle Arbeitsschritte erläutern und\nüben können. Die erlernten Techniken könnt Ihr künftig vielseitig in eigenen Filzarbeiten anwenden.
