Explore thickness of layout and densities of partially felted sheets of wool for patterning effects\, texture resists and edging techniques when fusing wool through fabrics. Incorporate surprising substrates and a variety to be used to trap found objects under and in fabric pockets to add strategic weight\, defined shape\, dimension and color. Free-motion embroidery will be applied to offer finer detailing and to compress remaining airspace in the felt creating an embossed effect. These studies/samples of intensive techniques are suggested as a focal point in a larger field of felt\, for example: a jacket cuff\, a shirt collar\, a bag flap\, an aspect of a wall hanging and/or a jewelry component. \nNot for novice felters. Intermediate & Advance participants having experience with laying out thin and evenly and looking to develop new aesthetics through structural play of felt\, fabric and stitch.\n**Wet felting is a physically demanding process. Participants should be comfortable standing; have shoulder\, arm and hand strength/mobility; be comfortable with having their hands in wet/soapy conditions for hours and exposed to hot and cold water. ** URL:https://www.feltmakers.com/event/lisa-klakulaks-workshop-felt-depth-of-surface-depth-of-field/ LOCATION:Sanborn Mills Farm\, 7097 Sanborn Rd\, Louden\, NH\, 03307\, United States CATEGORIES:In Person ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://www.feltmakers.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/Klakulak_Sanborn-Mills-Farm-NH.png ORGANIZER;CN="Lisa Klakulak":MAILTO:info@strongfelt.com END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20240727T100000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20240727T163000 DTSTAMP:20260601T213605 CREATED:20240418T110256Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240418T110256Z UID:10002990-1722074400-1722097800@www.feltmakers.com SUMMARY:Raw Fleece to…Tuffet: Making Seat Mats with Sheep Fleece DESCRIPTION:A day working with raw sheep fleece to make a natural\, sheep friendly and sustainable seat pad.

You will learn how to lay the wool and other fibres and apply wet felting techniques to bond the fibres together. You can choose neutral tones\, bright jewel colours\, abstract patterns or more pictoral elements to create your unique design. At the end of this first half day session you will have a piece of flat fabric which you will go on to make your bespoke lampshade with. \nDay Two: Using the felt fabric prepared in the first session you will make your lampshade. Learning how to cut your felt fabric to size\, adhere a fire resistant backing and shade rings\, to construct your lampshade. This session will give you a basic understanding of how to make a drum lampshade\, equipped with these new skills\, you can apply this knowledge to future projects with confidence. \nIf you have a stash of yarns\, fabric or other material\, and which of us that love textiles doesn’t\, do bring along any bits you’d like to incorporate into your work. Prior to the first session consider what colour\, pattern and design you would like your shade to have by collecting images\, making sketches and notes. \nAll materials and equipment are provided. Illustrated handouts notes are offered to enable you to continue to practice what you learn during the workshop. No previous felting experience is required. All abilities are welcomed as this workshop is especially suitable for beginners and those wishing to extend their felting practice. \nThis is a two day workshop starting on Saturday 1st June 2024 10am – 2pm and finishing the following day Sunday 2nd June 2024 10am – 2pm URL:https://www.feltmakers.com/event/felt-lampshades-3/ LOCATION:Silversoles Studio\, 129 Hazelhurst Road\, Birmingham\, B14 6AG\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:In Person ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://www.feltmakers.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Felt-Lampshade-Workshop-image-2-2.png ORGANIZER;CN="Emma Jackson (Silversoles)":MAILTO:info@silversoles.co.uk END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20240529T093000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20240529T120000 DTSTAMP:20260601T213605 CREATED:20240418T101119Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240418T101119Z UID:10002984-1716975000-1716984000@www.feltmakers.com SUMMARY:Felt Rug Repair Project DESCRIPTION:Felt Rug Project\nGrace Smith and I (Emma Jackson) are in the process of repairing and restoring her Shrydak felt rug. This is an ongoing project that began over a year ago after Grace discovered to her horror that moth lavae had munched their way through large parts of her rug beautiful felt rug. To date this has been a process of researching how to eradicate any last vestiges of lavae and prevent future infestations. We have clarified which wools were used to make the rug and selected the wool type most suitable to repair it. This has involved understanding the dyes used\, the strength and durability of the wool needed and how the rug was originally assembled. It has and continues to be a steep learning curve\, and has provided interesting insights into the changing use of dyes\, from natural to acid dyes in Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union during the last hundred years. \nWe have now moved onto the actual repair stage now\, needle felting the new wool into the front and back of the holes and tracks eaten away by the lava. To help prevent the work becoming overwhelming\, Grace has stitched a grid across the rug so we can work methodical\, focusing on one area at at time. We are meeting fortnightly at The Old Printworks in Baslall Heath (Birmingham) and approaching this part of the restoration as a community project\, inviting people to join in and learn about felting along the way. If you are interested in taking part please message me for further details. \nEveryone is welcome to come along\, see & chat about the project and have a go at repairing the rug. These are very friendly\, informal sessions. You can drop in for one off visits\, come for multiple sessions\, when you can\, be it an hour or for the whole morning you are very welcome.

Though sculpture is usually perceived as static I see it more as movement\, the movement of wool from fibers into felt.\nAnd as long as there is movement there is life.\nThis 6-day workshop is a discovery journey filled with many experiences of modeling different wools and other fibers. We will explore different techniques for sculptural form ideas\, with themes like: folding and unfolding\, building relief\, clamping and binding. All to become more aware of how and why we want to use this medium. This workshop is inspired by the idea that we have to allow ourselves to discover new ways of creating with wool. Let the wool make you feel things\, and then decide if it is any good. \nfULL RESIDENCE ON SITE IS AVAILIABLE URL:https://www.feltmakers.com/event/discovery-through-felt-1-2-sculptural-felting-workshop-marjolein-dallinga-2/ LOCATION:Atelier du Bocage 31\, lieu dit la couech\, montbrun bocage\, Occitanie\, 31310\, France CATEGORIES:In Person ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.feltmakers.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/GB-MARJOLEIN.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="FEUTRE FORMATION FRANCE":MAILTO:atelierdubocage31@gmail.com END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20240504T100000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20240506T160000 DTSTAMP:20260601T213605 CREATED:20240401T112518Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240401T112518Z UID:10002975-1714816800-1715011200@www.feltmakers.com SUMMARY:Marble Design Seamless Nuno-Felted Vest with Flóra Carlile-Kováks DESCRIPTION:3 Day Workshop hosted by IFA Region 2 in the New Forest \n Learn how to create one seamless\, nunofelted vest that fits 3 different body shapes and sizes. \nI will show you how to design the pattern\, how to enlarge it\, various layouts of the wool that supports the fitted shape of the garment\, my special “marbled surface design”\, and there will be special focus on final shaping of the garment.

Während des Schaffens werden wir technische Details Eurer Arbeiten genauer beleuchten und unterschiedliche Ansätze und Lösungsmöglichkeiten für kritische Situationen zusammentragen. So können wir eine Reihe von Varianten im Werden beobachten und alle etwas voneinander lernen.\nAnstelle einer großformatigen Arbeit (die relativ viel Kraft beim Walken erfordert) könnt Ihr auch eine Gruppe kleinerer Objekte anfertigen\, die aufeinander Bezug nehmen oder ein gewähltes Thema in verschiedenen Techniken ausprobieren.\nMacht Euch schon mal auf die Suche nach interessanten Strukturen\, Fotos oder Fundstücken\, die als Ausgangspunkt für eine künstlerische Filzgestaltung dienen können! \n1 Zusatz-Tag Kragen:\nWer möchte\, kann den Kurs noch um einen zusätzlichen Tag erweitern\, an dem wir 3d Strukturen auf einen Kragen anwenden wollen. Besondere Herausforderung ist nun\, die vormals flache Grundfläche dem Körper anzupassen\, damit sie sich gut an Nacken und Schultern anschmiegt.\nDieser Tag kann auch einzeln gebucht werden\, empfehlenswert ist es\, ihn mit der Einführung (Tag 1) zu kombinieren.

V. haben sich über 30 Künstlerinnen auf sehr unterschiedliche Weise dem Thema Raumbegriff genähert und ihm sehr vielfältige Bedeutungen entlockt. Raum wird nicht nur als Zimmer\, sondern auch als physikalische Größe\, als Natur- und Lebensraum und zugleich als unendlich und nicht greifbar wahrgenommen. Mit jedem Raum ist eine ganz eigene Atmosphäre unmittelbar verbunden. So entstand z. B. in der Pandemie ein neues Raumverständnis\, der Wohnraum wurde zur Isolationsstätte.\nDie Ausstellung „FokusFILZ“\, organisiert von Ulrike Hartrumpf und Bärbel Helfrich\, zeigt ein breites Themenspektrum\, das von der Umsetzung persönlicher Reiseeindrücke\, der Beschäftigung mit geometrischen Formen und klaren Linien bis zur Bewältigung von Ängsten und Zorn reicht. Die 17 teilnehmenden Künstlerinnen widmen sich darüber hinaus privaten Herausforderungen und globalen Problemen wie Kriegen\, Wirtschafts- und Klimakrisen. Ihr experimentierfreudiger Umgang mit Farben und Feuer\, dem Zusammenführen verschiedener Materialien und der Darstellung von Natur in Filz ist gepaart mit großem Einfallsreichtum.\nBeide Ausstellungen zeigen neben der künstlerischen Ausgestaltung auch die unglaubliche Vielseitigkeit des Werkstoffes Filz. Handwerkliches Geschick\, aber auch der kreative Umgang mit Techniken des Handfilzes machen jedes Ausstellungsstück einzigartig und zeugen von einer individuellen Formensprache\, die zeitgemäß\, modern und innovativ ist. Das Spielen mit verschiedenen Materialkombinationen und textilen Techniken auf der einen\, die bewusst sparsam eingesetzte Materialität und Farbe auf der anderen Seite machen die umfassende Schau zu einem spannenden Erlebnis. \nzwei Ausstellungen\, organisiert von Filznetzwerk e.

A three day short course at the prestigious international college set in the beautiful South Downs of England.\nFine felt making with British wools invites the felt maker to explore less familiar native wools and to celebrate their diversity for fine felt making and unique hand crafted outcomes. Sampling exercises will inform your own design aims using a range of felting methods.\nThe British Isles have a rich source of diverse wool types with more breeds of sheep than any other in the world; more than 60 different breeds from hill and mountain to fine and lustre breeds. A sustainable\, renewable and environmentally positive fibre choice\, the characteristics of these breeds vary widely\, with the potential to celebrate this diversity for unique hand crafted outcomes.
