Workshops and Wonderwool - busy week!

This week is going to be a busy one - three very full days of the day job, then Thursday and Friday I shall be at Craft in the Bay in Cardiff, taking part in a workshop entitled Translating Images: Photography with Feltmaking led by Liz clay. As many of you will know, Liz Clay is a leading (world-famous, indeed) textile artist now specialising in Nuno felt, which is mostly what this workshop is about. Having dabbled quite a bit in Nuno techniques over the last year or two in my own work, I am very much looking forward to a masterclass with a real expert. Then on Saturday it's off to Wonderwool - if you are within striking distance of the Royal Welsh Showground near Builth Wells, don't miss this! See www.wonderwool.co.uk for details. As well as potentially spending a fortune on equipment and materials, it will be good to catch up with friends and contacts, and also to meet in person quite a few people I've met online in the last year. I am particularly looking forward to meeting Susan James of Llynfi Textiles, who will be on the Organic Textiles Wales stand. Check out her website at www.llynfitextiles.co.uk (just getting used to the new version of Blogger and not sure if the links will work - apologies if they don't, please cut and paste them into your browser until I get the hang of the new system! Thanks...)
