Gwen’s Felted Paintings reviews

Rita Fabling reviewed: Needle Felt a Blue Tit (with video instructions)

"I really enjoyed doing this kit. Gwen's video made it very easy to complete. I've still to put it into the hoop but I'd certainly look to see what other kits there are available. Certainly recommend it. "

Rhoda reviewed: Needle Felt a Blue Tit (with video instructions)

"This craft kit is absolutely beautiful. The quality of all elements is excellent, and the video is informative but easy to follow. It would make a fantastic gift. "

Gwen’s Felted Paintings responded:

"Thank you so much for your lovely review Rhoda! I’m delighted to hear that you enjoyed it 😊"

Ann reviewed: Needle Felt a Robin - with video tutorial

"The felted robin kit was a delight to make. There is plenty of wool to make several robins. I copied the design onto tracing paper before I started so that I could reproduce the design on my own fabric afterwards. So far I have made three robins! The video tutorial is first class. It is well filmed, very clear and friendly, and speeds up from time to time when a technique is being repeated so you don't get bored or have to fast forward yourself. I would thoroughly recommend this kit. It also arrived very promptly. Thank you! "

Gwen’s Felted Paintings responded:

"Hello Ann. Thank you so much for your lovely review! It’s hugely appreciated. I’m delighted that you enjoyed it and that you managed to make use of your extra wool :). Please do let me know if you have any questions about felting 😊"

Joan johns reviewed: Needle Felt a Blue Tit (with video instructions)

"The video instructions were faultless; very explicit and the wool worked exactly as Gwen the instructor was telling us and couldn’t be improved. The package of wool was very generous and I was able to make, as she said, four more. I would emphasise, as Gwen did, in taking your time when doing this work. Although this was my first needlefelt, I have worked with textiles; sewing machines; needles etc. So anyone who’s never picked up a needle before will be able to do this if they listen carefully about ‘use of the barbed needle’. Thoroughly enjoyed doing the work and will certainly be buying from Gwen again. "

K Betts reviewed: Needle felt a robin - live online workshop

"A fantastic course! What a lovely, friendly and patient lady Gwen is. Myself and my Mum thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon and we came away with 2 beautiful robin’s at the end, despite never having needle felted before. The kit was great quality, with plenty of wool and an extra needle. Everything we needed was supplied. Can’t recommend the course enough, would love to do another."

Vanessa reviewed: Needle Felt a Bumblebee

"I didn't think there was any chance I could complete my first needle felting project during an online class but with Gwen's help, I am now the proud maker of a charming felted bumble bee. Gwen's screen set-up and instruction were excellent, as was the kit she mailed out. She is a welcoming, organized and very talented teacher and I look forward to my next chance to take a class with her."

Kit contains all you need to produce a felted picture just like the one you see on the advert with lots of wool left over to make another one. Highly recommended."

"A very well paced and organised ZOOM workshop. The teaching was excellent and it was great to have a finished blue tit at the end of the course. The kit was nicely packaged and presented and with the addition of your own backing fabric there is enough wool to make a flock of blue tits! Looking forward to taking part in the Toadstool workshop later on this month."

Amy Severino reviewed: Needle felt a blue tit (Midday on Fridays and 3pm on Saturdays)

"Gwen's online workshop was a delight. The kit came beautifully packaged, with high quality supplies. Her instruction was so easy to understand and the way she handled the class with an aerial camera along with her own face in the gallery so we could see her while she was instructing, along with the project demonstration was simply perfect. Gwen gave instructions and demonstrated very clearly and was open to questions throughout the workshop. She didn't rush anyone and was attentive by checking in on each of the participants. I highly recommend Gwen's workshops. It was a lovely way to spend a few hours, and I am so pleased with the result of my project."

Gwen’s Felted Paintings responded:

"Amy, thank you so much for such a lovely review. It was such a pleasure meeting you (and your two lovely little dogs ☺️). I am so pleased that you enjoyed it!"

Audrey Humphreys reviewed: Needle felt a blue tit (Midday on Fridays and 3pm on Saturdays)

"I really enjoyed the felting workshop and was amazed with the beautiful result that I got, a blue tit that is fit for framing and will take pride of place on my wall. Gwen was really lovely and made everyone feel at home even though it was over Zoom. The kit arrived well packaged and with high quality materials, everything you needed with lots to spare. During the workshop Gwen shared her knowledge in a way that put everyone at ease and there were lots of hints and tips as she demonstrated each stage, she is very talented and knowledgeable, nothing was too much trouble. I would wholeheartedly recommend her workshops."

"Wonderful introduction to felting and thoroughly enjoyed the workshop on zoom. Gwen was very patient with the group and manged to keep the ones who were ahead engaged as well as the slower ones so that we all knew what to do next. Very proud of my Bumblebee picture and now I hope to create more pictures using this technique."

Debbie reviewed: Needle Felt a Bumblebee

"I was given an online class as a birthday present and joined the class with some of my friends (a lovely way to catch up with people at the moment!). The materials arrived well in advance and a very generous amount of materials were included. The class itself was easy to follow and Gwen was great at checking in on everyone's progress throughout the session (and happy to repeat steps as we all worked at different speeds). This was my first online craft course and I really enjoyed it - the afternoon went by very fast!"
