Published on by Feltmakers Ireland

Not feltmaking, but nevertheless, these textile classes should be of interest. Imagine how these techniques could be combined with felt!!!

Mel Bradley Silks is offering several dyeing and silk painting classes in her studio, Gallery 13, in Drogheda, Co. Louth.

Her workshops are suitable for beginners and intermediate students. Master classes for experienced artists and designers are available on request.

Classes are small to allow for individual tuition, with a maximum of 6 per workshop.

A few spaces are left in the Indigo dyeing workshop on the 26th of August, which Mel is running with Feltmakers Ireland member Clodagh McDonagh.
