RE-INVENT, REPURPOSE, REMAKE, RECLAIM, OLD FELT ARTWORK
Call out to all felt makers! Do you have a felt jacket which doesn’t quite fit, a dozen felt scarves never worn, a felt dress from middle earth, another dozen unworn hats or a vest with an oversized hood?
Well, here is an opportunity to modify or combine felt pieces to create new wearable garments that fit well and suit your style. Hand and machine stitching will be utilised. It will be such a lot of fun. We can even make art pieces from the scraps!All levels
