Gwen’s Felted Paintings reviews

Val Hearn reviewed: Needle felt a robin - live online workshop

"This is the first on line course I've joined. I thought it was very good. The teacher was excellent and I came away feeling pleased with what I had made. I also felt I had learned enough to begin felting on my own. I enjoyed chatting to the other people even though everyone was in a different part of the country. I would enroll on another course."

Gwen’s Felted Paintings responded:

"I’m so pleased to hear that you enjoyed it Val! Thank you so much for your lovely review. I look forward to seeing some of your future makes :)."

Wendy reviewed: Needle felt a robin - live online workshop

"Thank you so much to Gwen, what a lovely relaxed afternoon! Gwen had a very good way about her, making us all feel at ease while learning something new. I really, really enjoyed it, and as the kit Gwen sent has plenty of wool for another robin or two, I will make some more! I have a linen shirt I can cut up to use as my background :) Would definitely recommend the course to anyone wanting to have a go. I had no experience at all! There's no rushing through how to do things and Gwen answered all our questions."

Gwen’s Felted Paintings responded:

"Wendy, it was lovely meeting you and I was very impressed with your robin :). I'm really chuffed to hear that you are hoping to make more with your extra wool. Thank you so much for such a lovely review, it really is hugely appreciated :)"

Karen R reviewed: Needle felt a robin - live online workshop

"A great way to spend a cold wet and windy afternoon with like minded people on line learning something new and being creative. Gwen's pre course preparation, on the day presentation and teaching skills were really professional and friendly. I'd highly recommend. Zoom has brought the chance to join workshops from far across the Country in a way that would never have been possible before and this workshop was a gem of a find :)"

Belinda reviewed: Needle felt a toadstool - online workshop with full kit provided

"My daughter's and I did the needle felted mushroom with Gwen. Absolutely loved it. The kit was superb and provided everything we needed. It was the first course I have done via Zoom and it worked out perfectly. Instructions and video link was clear, so we were easily able to follow and managed to get our mushrooms completed. Think I have found a new hobby. Thanks Gwen."

Louise O'Reilly reviewed: Needle felt a robin - live online workshop

"I did a felting course with Gwen on Zoom, it was brilliant, really good fun, easy to follow instructions and a great way to relax. I made a picture of a cactus plant in a pot and it looks really good. I have it on my wall in my home office and when I look at it I am reminded of that afternoon. Thanks Gwen, when I have time I will definitely do another!"

Natalie reviewed: Needle felt a robin - live online workshop

"I am not a particularly creative person but was persuaded to have a go at this by a friend. It was actually really good fun and I did much better than i thought i would. I've never really done much craft work before but Gwen was really good at explaining how to make the picture so in the end mine didn't look too bad for a beginner! It was a really relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Would definitely recommend this course. It was a great way to spend an afternoon and I now have a picture I made myself to put on my wall."
