We are delighted to announce a workshop with textile artist Jeanette Appleton at the end of October. This is Jeanette’s second workshop with us and anyone who attended her first in 2009 will remember how inspirational she is.  Have a look at her website for some beautiful images of her work http://www.jeanetteappleton.com/

The theme for the workshop with Feltmakers Ireland is:

Transparency and Depth

Exploring the proportion of wool and cloth, to consider the contrasts of lightness and density in the felt structure. Discover the potential to create distorted and slightly three dimensional structures for interior or fashion items. Or as a method of layering marks and textures for compositional ideas towards art textiles.

The workshop is taking place in the RDS on 29/30th October, a wonderful start to the week that the Knitting & Stitching Show. We are grateful to the RDS for their support with this workshop which allows us to offer places at a very affordable price.
