The first ever book about Feltmaking in Ireland was published this month. It is a beautiful 100page hardback book profiling the work of 44 makers living in Ireland. The book comprises of stories of how the makers became involved in felt and their inspiration and is illustrated with photographs by Joanna Tomaszewska (www.visiblemoments.com)  The book is available to buy at all Feltmakers Ireland events (Drop In Sunday Sessions, Workshops etc) and also in the Yarn Room in Ashford, Co Wicklow. If you would like to get a copy of the book by post please email sheila.ahern@ireland.com (the cost is €15 + P&P). A great gift for anyone interested in craft, textiles and felt. We received financial support from the Crafts Council of Ireland which allowed us to produce a really good quality book  that we are very proud of.
