SUMMARY:Felted Hebridean Fleece Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Trish O’Meara of Wormit Woolies will lead you through the ancient craft of wet felting to create your very own one of a kind felted fleece rug from the fleece of a living Hebridean sheep\, grown here at Guardswell Farm. Hebridean sheep are small\, hardy Scottish sheep that produce beautiful dark fleece with a mix of brown\, black and sometimes hints of grey.  \nWet felting is the oldest form of textile making and has been recognized as a heritage craft in the UK since the 1100’s. It has a rich history in Scotland with something known as ‘Waulking”. Waulking\, also known as fulling\, is a traditional Scottish process of soaking the fabric in water\, followed by rhythmic beating and kneading\, typically accompanied by singing Gaelic songs. This process makes the fabric denser and more durable.   \nThis is a practical workshop but you’ll also get loads of theory along the way. Come prepared for an upper body workout and wear comfortable clothes and appropriate footwear as felting can be physically demanding with part of the process taking place outside. You will be provided with a plastic apron along with everything else needed to create your very own one of a kind felted fleece rug. \nWe are hosting this workshop in the beautiful Guardswell Glasshouse and will provide a delicious tea + coffee + cake break

SUMMARY:Wool in The Wolds
DESCRIPTION:“Wool in The Wolds” is Lamorna’s first solo exhibition – a collection of both 2D and 3D creations to show many different ways of using wool with other fibres such as mulberry bark\, woven linen and sari silk offcuts. The inspiration for this creative wealth has been the move North to live in The Lincolnshire Wolds (and build her own garden). As with many artists\, the big skies in this open landscape have a lot to do with stimulating her artistic expression. The geology and agriculture of The Wolds also play a part in the development of her work.  \nIn tandem with this exhibition she will be running 5 felting workshops for people to learn how to create wall hangings\, like those exhibited. \nCaistor Arts and Heritage Centre opening hours\nMonday to Friday 9.30 am to 4 pm; Saturday and Sunday 10.00 am to 4 pm

SUMMARY:Felting relief surfaces\, in-person-class at Hohebuch/Germany\, Sep 12-14\, 2025
DESCRIPTION:In this course\, we want to breathe new life into old pieces of felt and use them to create attractive sculptural surfaces. Leftovers or failed projects don’t have to end up in the trash!\nYou will learn how even solid pieces of felt can be incorporated into new works in a durable way and produce great effects: relief-like surfaces\, graphic images\, a stable framework for three-dimensional objects\, or interesting deformations when shrinking.\nDepending on your preferences\, you can design wall objects\, containers\, pillowcases\, or laptop sleeves.\nAn inspiration for re- or upcycling and the sensible use of our material resources.\n(Basic knowledge of felting is an advantage) – in German language

SUMMARY:TREE BARKS IN FELT with GLADYS PAULUS
DESCRIPTION:This 4-day workshop looks to the world of trees as a starng point for exploring textures\, surface relief and experimental layering. There are thought to be 73\,000 tree species globally\, among which 9\,000 tree species are yet to be discovered. Roughly 40% of undiscovered tree species are in South America.  \nWith such a huge inspiraon source\, there are years of inspiraon ahead for any arst/designer. For this workshop however\, we’ll have to narrow it down to 1 or 2 tree species! We’ll study these thoroughly\, and explore ways and techniques to translate their beauty into felt.

SUMMARY:N° 25/07 Cascade – 3 days masterclass for experienced felters\, Online workshop with Dagmar Binder
DESCRIPTION:There will be 3 groups available for different time zones and languages:\nGr. 1   July 25 and Sep 04/05\, 2025 in English 08-11 a.m. (CEST\, Berlin time = suitable for Europe\, Australia/NZ)\nGr. 2  Juli 26 and Sep 06/07\, 2025 in Deutsch 10 -13 h\nGr. 3  July 26 and Sep 06/07\, 2025 in English 06-09 p.m. (CEST\, Berlin time = suitable for Europe\, America) \nGRANDE FINALE show-and-tell / Abschlusstreffen  Sep 18\, 9 a.m. and 6 p.m. \nThe cascade project will demonstrate how my sculptural wall hanging “melt” was created. However\, we will work on a slightly smaller scale so that we can manage the size of the object in the course and still get to know and practise the most important technical aspects. By combining 3-dimensional felt components and the painterly use of wool fibers we can achieve an impressive spatial effect. We will have a close look at suitable wool types\, consistency and function of the different layers and fibre directions. A mixture of different wool colors on the surface\, as if they were brushstrokes of a painting\, will give the picture depth and liveliness. When finally placing the individual levels on the background\, we’ll try to find an interesting rhythm in order to create a perspective and dynamic movement.\nOur project is a little more extensive and challenging this time and includes 3 course dates. On the first day (late July) you will get an overview and start to prepare the individual levels of the cascade. You’ll then have a few weeks to make enough individual parts for your work\, take your time to think about its final shape and maybe\, individual design features.\nThen we’ll meet again (early September) for a weekend with 2 course days\, assemble the individual parts\, add final details and complete the sculpture. \n***Das Kaskadenprojekt soll Euch zeigen\, wie mein skulpturaler Wandbehang „melt“ entstanden ist. Wir werden allerdings in etwas kleinerer Dimension arbeiten\, um die Größe des Objekt im Kurs bewältigen zu können und dabei trotzdem die wichtigsten technischen Grundlagen kennenzulernen und zu üben. Im Zusammenspiel von 3-dimensionalen Filzkomponenten und dem malerischen Einsatz der Wollfasern\, lässt sich eine eindrucksvolle räumliche Wirkung erzielen. Dazu schauen wir uns geeignete Wolltypen\, die Konsistenz und Funktion der verschiedenen Schichten und Faserrichtungen genau an. Eine Mischung verschiedener Wollfarben auf der Oberfläche\, als wären es Pinselstriche eines Gemäldes\, wird dem Bild Tiefe und Lebendigkeit verleihen. Beim Aufsetzen der einzelnen Ebenen auf den Hintergrund wollen wir versuchen\, einen spannenden Rhythmus zu finden\, um Perspektive und dynamische Bewegung in das Objekt zu bringen.\nUnser Vorhaben ist diesmal etwas umfangreicher und anspruchvoller und beinhaltet 3 Kurstermine. Am ersten Tag (Ende Juli) verschaffen wir uns einen Überblick und beginnen\, die einzelnen Ebenen der Kaskade vorzubereiten. Danach habt Ihr einige Wochen Zeit\, ausreichend Einzelteile für Euer Werk herzustellen und in Ruhe die endgültige Form Eures Werkes und evtl. individuelle Gestaltungsformen zu durchdenken.\nAnschließend treffen wir uns wieder (Anfang September) für ein Wochenende mit 2 Kurstagen\, setzen die Einzelteile zusammen\, ergänzen letzte Details und stellen die Skulptur fertig.

DESCRIPTION:There will be 3 groups available for different time zones and languages:\nGr. 1   July 25 and Sep 04/05\, 2025 in English 08-11 a.m. (CEST\, Berlin time = suitable for Europe\, Australia/NZ)\nGr. 2  Juli 26 and Sep 06/07\, 2025 in Deutsch 10 -13 h\nGr. 3  July 26 and Sep 06/07\, 2025 in English 06-09 p.m. (CEST\, Berlin time = suitable for Europe\, America) \nGRANDE FINALE show-and-tell / Abschlusstreffen  Sep 18\, 9 a.m. and 6 p.m. \nThe cascade project will demonstrate how my sculptural wall hanging “melt” was created. However\, we will work on a slightly smaller scale so that we can manage the size of the object in the course and still get to know and practise the most important technical aspects. By combining 3-dimensional felt components and the painterly use of wool fibers we can achieve an impressive spatial effect. We will have a close look at suitable wool types\, consistency and function of the different layers and fibre directions. A mixture of different wool colors on the surface\, as if they were brushstrokes of a painting\, will give the picture depth and liveliness. When finally placing the individual levels on the background\, we’ll try to find an interesting rhythm in order to create a perspective and dynamic movement.\nOur project is a little more extensive and challenging this time and includes 3 course dates. On the first day (late July) you will get an overview and start to prepare the individual levels of the cascade. You’ll then have a few weeks to make enough individual parts for your work\, take your time to think about its final shape and maybe\, individual design features.\nThen we’ll meet again (early September) for a weekend with 2 course days\, assemble the individual parts\, add final details and complete the sculpture. \n***Das Kaskadenprojekt soll Euch zeigen\, wie mein skulpturaler Wandbehang „melt“ entstanden ist. Wir werden allerdings in etwas kleinerer Dimension arbeiten\, um die Größe des Objekt im Kurs bewältigen zu können und dabei trotzdem die wichtigsten technischen Grundlagen kennenzulernen und zu üben. Im Zusammenspiel von 3-dimensionalen Filzkomponenten und dem malerischen Einsatz der Wollfasern\, lässt sich eine eindrucksvolle räumliche Wirkung erzielen. Dazu schauen wir uns geeignete Wolltypen\, die Konsistenz und Funktion der verschiedenen Schichten und Faserrichtungen genau an. Eine Mischung verschiedener Wollfarben auf der Oberfläche\, als wären es Pinselstriche eines Gemäldes\, wird dem Bild Tiefe und Lebendigkeit verleihen. Beim Aufsetzen der einzelnen Ebenen auf den Hintergrund wollen wir versuchen\, einen spannenden Rhythmus zu finden\, um Perspektive und dynamische Bewegung in das Objekt zu bringen.\nUnser Vorhaben ist diesmal etwas umfangreicher und anspruchvoller und beinhaltet 3 Kurstermine. Am ersten Tag (Ende Juli) verschaffen wir uns einen Überblick und beginnen\, die einzelnen Ebenen der Kaskade vorzubereiten. Danach habt Ihr einige Wochen Zeit\, ausreichend Einzelteile für Euer Werk herzustellen und in Ruhe die endgültige Form Eures Werkes und evtl. individuelle Gestaltungsformen zu durchdenken.\nAnschließend treffen wir uns wieder (Anfang September) für ein Wochenende mit 2 Kurstagen\, setzen die Einzelteile zusammen\, ergänzen letzte Details und stellen die Skulptur fertig.

SUMMARY:Under the surface
DESCRIPTION:Cristina Rodo presents Under the Surface\, her new solo exhibition at the Museu Rei D. Carlos in Cascais/Portugal. The show brings together sculptural pieces\, wall and ceiling hangings\, and works with integrated light . Her work is rooted in an experimental approach\, with pieces that do not seek to replicate reality but rather express a personal\, intuitive\, and sensory vision inspired by the marine world. Under the Surface invites the viewer to dive into the depths of  wet felted wool\, exploring shapes\, textures\, and sensations that evoke the fluidity\, silence\, and mystery of the ocean.

SUMMARY:Get in Line: Community Canvas
DESCRIPTION:This installation explores the tension between individuality and conformity\, inspired by the phrases “get in line” and “fall in line.” In today’s polarized world\, “falling in line” often implies blind obedience—something I resist both personally and politically. The figures in this line defy that notion. Each one is a unique character\, crafted through layered fiber art techniques including felting\, weaving\, surface design\, and stitch. Their differences are not only visible—they’re celebrated.  When viewers press a switch in a figure’s hand\, lights illuminate parts of their bodies. This act of connection—joining hands and literally lighting up the world—is at the heart of the work. We “get in line” together\, as individuals\, toward something joyful\, communal\, and alive.  These figures could never “fall in line.” They are too textured\, too weird\, too wonderful—just as people should be.

SUMMARY:ANITA JOHNSON in FRANCE AGAIN: FELT TRAINING IN 2 PARTS
DESCRIPTION:6 days to learn original techniques for working with felt in the south of France from August 28 to September 3\, 2025 in residence in Montbrun-Bocage.\nFELT PERCEIVED AS A SUBSTANCE 3-day workshop from August 28 to 30\, 2025\nDuring this workshop you will explore the study of wool fibers and felt approached as a substance for sculpture which can interact with other substances and construct itself in the manner of clay. Learn to create hollow felt sculptural shapes directly by hand without using plastic resin. This method makes it possible to directly model complex shapes in 3 dimensions.\nThis course will also explore how many substances interact with the surface of finished felt receptors. You will apply gold leaf\, silicone\, wax\, putty\, tar and other substances to felt shapes\, which will transform this felt shape into an object of another structure.\nDESIGN IDEAS FOR FELTMAKERS 3-day workshop from September 1 to 3\, 2025\nHow can felt makers create innovative shapes and new designs?\nThis creative workshop begins with fun methods of drawing\, doodling and collage on paper. Collage methods (cutting\, reassembly and serendipitous occurrence) can be an interesting way to develop spare patterns which are then used to create felt shapes. The initial inspiration will come from the observation of everyday objects.\nAnita will then guide students through fun ways to develop a three-dimensional felt shape from two-dimensional drawings. The intricacies of calculating and planning a unique reserve form will be shared with each student based on their own project as it evolves. Layering\, grooving\, making holes or twisting the resist will be explored as ways to create unusual sculptures\, containers or felt hats if you prefer. Tired of making felt from the same spare shapes? Then this course will give you the skills to create new ones.

SUMMARY:Eden wool gathering
DESCRIPTION:Hello I am Wendy Erskine from ‘Eden Textiles Studio’ based in Dumfries & Galloway. I have been passionate about wool and textiles for over twenty years. I weave\, spin and felt wool taken from our own mixed flock near Wigtown. I started teaching myself through research into many different styles and techniques. I then progressed with the help of Lena Archbold’s excellent teaching.\nhttps://www.facebook.com/EdenTextilesStudio \nI have thought about bringing like minded people together at some sort of gathering for quite a while now and decided this year to create the first ‘Eden Wool Gathering’ which this year will be held at Whithorn Roundhouse in Dumfries & Galloway. I wanted the chance to promote wool in our local farming community and show people how many wonderful things can be made from it\, and the many things it can be used for. \nI am now in my third year of remission from cancer so decided to hold this great event as a charity fund raiser for our local cancer drop in centre\, based in Stranraer\, which has helped me and many other people over the years.\nhttps://www.facebook.com/p/Stranraer-Cancer-Drop-In-Centre-100057349723588/ \n\nStranraer Cancer Drop In Centre \n\nWhat will you expect to see at the ‘Eden Wool Gathering’? Well on this page you will have seen various people who will be there carrying out demonstrations\, stalls\, talks and workshops. There will also be some different livestock to meet. There will also be food and refreshments at the Whithorn Trust’s cafe and museum. Please follow us to see more over the coming months. Thank you\nhttps://www.facebook.com/thewhithorntrust
