I'm back at Hever Castle in Kent this weekend at this year's
Country Life at the Castle event, demonstrating feltmaking with a team of helpers (thank you everyone!). There's lots else to see, including a quilt show, other craft demonstrations, local food to taste and things to buy. I'll be demonstrating different types of feltmaking, including the 'bag on a ball' technique I learned last Sept (see Sept 2012 blog - and here's a photo of the ball I've part-prepared for this weekend), and I have a range of felting kits on offer. Come and say hello if you can make it! Also visit www.hevercastle.co.uk.
Just had a very busy (and at times very wet!) weekend demonstrating feltmaking at Hever Castle. Lots of fun, and thankfully the weather didn't seem to put off the visitors. Thank you to everyone who visited - and particularly to my team of helpers. Here are some photos of us in action - including us 'birthing' the felt bag from the ball and the finished bag (which in the end we decided would make a rather lovely basket instead)!
