"Before the course Erika wanted to know my interests and aspirations for working with felt. It was a completely new skill for me but I outlined what my artistic ideas were. On the day of the course Erika guided me through the whole process with skills, empathy and astute understanding every step of the way. My resulting felt sculpture was amazing. I had no preconceived ideas but I was lead by the process and materials. I now understand something about felting. I intend to do another course to continue my journey into this ancient skill. The other participants, who had all been before embarked on their own projects guided by Erika. By observing these my skills were further enhanced. The day was intuitive not to a set timetable. Breaks for lunch were taken to fit with your own project and pace of working. One of the best day courses in Cumbria. Thank you Erika"

Erika Sojkova Grime responded:

"Thank you, Gill, for such a fantastic review. It was a real pleasure meeting you at the workshop and guiding you through the day. We all found your amazing sculpture truly inspirational and I am looking forward to you joining us again in the future. Thank you again, Erika "

"Thank you very much for such a great review, Jo and for coming back again next month 🙂. It was great meeting you at the workshop and teaching you about 3D wet felting, the materials and making a felted bag. Your bag is beautiful and I can't wait to see it dry and completed with leather handles. Erika"

"This course is great! I'd never done felting before but Erika's expertise and a wide range of materials provided ( at no additional cost....which is always a personal bug bear) meant that I left with a great piece of felting I'll actually be proud to use! Huge thanks Erika, I'm off to rebook!"

"Great Felting workshop. So many different levels of experience among the participants and so many different projects but Erika managed it all perfectly. She was available for help and advice wherever needed and was very enthusiastic and encouraging. The venue was perfect - nice and warm and tea/coffee freely available. I would definitely attend another of Erika's workshops."

"Erika was a brilliant teacher. It was a great atmosphere and everyone was so helpful. Each of us did a different project so was great to see other techniques being used and I look forward to making more. Erika provided a range of materials and really opened up the options. Well explained and always on hand when needed for the extra talk through. "
