The online felting event, Felt United, is happening this Saturday, October 5th, 2024. All over the world, those who work in the media of felt are encouraged to share one piece related to this year’s theme.

This year’s Felt United theme is ‘Opposites Attract,’ an inspiration familiar to our guild. Some of our group were initially challenged by the theme, but it can be as simple as contrasting colours or the combination of sea and shore.

{Members of Feltmakers Ireland explored this theme for our annual exhibition at the Phoenix Park Visitors’ Centre this past May. There are a series of seven posts about our members’ inspiration here – https://feltmakersireland.com/2024/05/09/exhibition-opposites-attract-the-inspiration/ }

From Felt United’s Facebook page –

Felters from around the globe show their felt to the world, work on collaborations, travel the world to meet each other, party, celebrate, exhibit, teach, talk and share. Everybody in their own way, all united by working on the same theme, same day, same joy but different ideas.

Share your new theme-related creations online with Felt United.
