We are planning a schedule of exciting workshops for the year ahead.

Our annual Basic & Beyond workshop is taking place on Saturday, 24th January. Many of you who have taken this workshop know that it is a very exciting, busy and fun-filled day. There are still some places left, so if you know anyone who might be interested, please contact Suzanne on 085 114 6391. The full-day workshop costs €65 (members) and €75 (non-members).

Priority for all places on workshops (apart from the Basic & Beyond) is given to members of Feltmakers Ireland. If we don’t fill the workshops (very unlikely from past experience), we then offer places to non-members. Membership costs just €25 per year, and as well as workshops you are eligible to take part in exhibitions and other events, and you will receive a copy of our Magazine quarterly in the post. Membership runs from Jan-Jan, so if you haven’t yet renewed now is the time.

April 18/19th April Bag Workshop with Leiko Uchiyama

We are delighted to welcome Leiko back for another workshop. Her classes are always very popular and book out quickly. Keep an eye out here for more details.

July 27-29 Nancy Ballesteros  – Wearable

Nancy will be giving a two-and-a-half-day workshop making a  beautiful single or double-sided ‘tabard’ style apron. Nancy is travelling from Australia, where she runs a felt supply company Treetops Colour Harmonies http://www.treetopscolours.com.au Nancy’s website is a treasure trove for feltmakers, and her wool and silk colour blends are beautiful. We will post more details of this workshop as soon as possible.
