In one day, Feltmakers Ireland’s juried exhibition, ‘Bountiful’, will open. The event will be introduced by Pippa Hackett, sheep farmer and Minister of State and the Department of Agriculture, Food and Marine.

In addition to our members’ wet and needle-felted creations, copies of our recently published book, ‘Exploring Irish Wool for Feltmaking’ will be available.

Lastly, as part of the celebration of our founding twenty years ago, we will unveil our collaborative Floral Tapestry.

In the meantime, here are snippets of two members’ pieces.
