We are planning to hold a series of “Play Days” at the Inchicore Social Club, the next two will be on Saturdays 24th March and the 21st April. These are days when feltmakers can work together on their own projects. The Club is an ideal venue to work on larger projects that won’t fit on your kitchen table. There will be a small charge for the hire of the hall (depends on numbers but max €10). Places will be limited so if you are interested in joining in please email sheila.ahern@ireland.com

Our next Sunday Session will be held in our studio in the Phoenix Park on the 11th March – we will be looking at felting using an embellishing machine.

We are also holding a two day complex bag workshop in the same venue on Sat/Sun March 31st and April 1st. The tutor is the Hungarian feltmaker Gabi McGrath, participants need to bring their own materials but there will be Hungarian merino batts available to buy on the day.

In June we are delighted to welcome the German feltmaker Dagmar Binder to Ireland to give a two day workshop working on her wonderful 3D Sculptural felt. The workshop will be held in the National Museum of Decorative Arts in Collins Barracks on the 29th/30th June. Applications forms are more details available soon
