Sarah Brookers felt hangings
sarah was displaying her felt pictures and hangings at Prema in Uley so I trotted along. She is a very gifted artist who studied fine art at Portsmouth, and shared a studio with Alice Kettle.
Her finished pieces have a painterly feel and she manages to get a real 3D effect using shade and light.

This one was stunning my favourite the plates and jars looked so three dimensional , it was the largest piece.

felted horns
Following Gladys Paulus ' workshop I really got keen on felting horns,My grandaughter wanted large sheep horns goodness knows why.I sewed them onto a headband but they are so big they are difficult to wear.
workshop with Gladys Paulus 1
This was a brilliant workshop,Gladys is a well organised talented caring tutor.She started by telling us where we needed to be by the end of each of the 5 days.I found this a great help.The days started with her showing us how to proceed to the next stage.We were making 3D masks to our own design. I had decided to make a Griffon as they are mythical creatures so no one would know
what it was supposed to look like! Gladys lending a helping hand with someones dragon.
