Workshop Sweatshop

I have been recently coaxed off my Mountain to the the beautiful Central Cost to conduct a nuno felting workshop with the very lovely and talented folk there.

 
  
 

We definitely worked up a sweat as the weather was warm and we couldn't have the fans on or the windows and doors open as the fibre would blow away!! This was a day packed with activity as all bent to the task of making a nuno wrap.

 
 

I always enjoy the way each work is so different to the next and the students each bring a little bit of their own soul to each creation..

 
  
  
The finished items are all photographed whilst they were still wet so you can't really see the true colours or beautiful lustre and drape, but I'm sure you'll agree they have done some gorgeous work.
