I'm back at Hever Castle in Kent this coming weekend, 12-14 September 2014, demonstrating feltmaking at the annual 'Country Life at the Castle' and quilt show event (along with other craft demonstrations and art and craft for sale). I've been busy using Norwegian fleece and the 'felting on a ball' method to make felt bags and bowls. The photos give you an idea how it's done but to find out more come along 1030-1700 daily!

Feltmaking at Hever Castle
Had a busy weekend feltmaking on 15 and 16 September, when I was invited to demonstrate feltmaking at the Country Life at the Castle event at Hever Castle in Kent. I managed to get a team of helpers together (thanks everyone!), and we had a very enjoyable (if exhausting!) time talking to visitors and demonstrating the different parts of the feltmaking process. Here are a few photos of us in action!
