Feltmaker and artist Judith Daniels is teaching a felted vessel workshop as part of the Fiber College of Maine Touchstone Retreat. (This workshop is in the USA).
Students will learn two ways to make 3-D forms: one with a resist and one with differential shrinkage.
During the workshop, students will learn the basics about choosing and using colours for specific effects and how laying out the wool in certain patterns and thicknesses affects the shape of one’s vessel. In addition, students will learn how the direction of rolling and how long a piece is fulled affects the final shape of a bowl. Students will explore using various fibres and materials in the surface design of their pieces. The instructor will bring samples of different kinds of wool to touch so students can learn what type works better for larger or smaller pieces and the difference in surface texture and rigidity.
When: the 4th-8th of September 2024.
