Introduction to Felting Workshop

Join our Introduction to Felting Workshop at Tweed Valley Textile Company’s Northern Rivers Studio. Discover the joy of turning fibres and fabrics into beautiful felted textiles and sculptural objects. Additionally, this friendly, hands-on class is perfect for anyone who wants to explore felting. You’ll also learn a variety of creative techniques used in contemporary textile art.

Learn the Art of Felting

During the workshop, you’ll be guided step by step through layering, wetting, and shaping fine merino wool and silk fibres. These simple techniques create richly textured felt. Moreover, you’ll experiment with colour, texture, and surface design. You’ll also gain the skills and confidence to continue felting at home. In addition, you’ll see how traditional methods combine beautifully with modern textile design.

Furthermore, our Introduction to Felting Workshop highlights sustainable textile techniques. These approaches celebrate slow making and creativity inspired by nature. You’ll finish the class with your own handmade felt pieces. As a result, you’ll leave with a deeper understanding of the felting process, ready to continue your textile art journey.
