Nicola Flower reviewed: Felt Pictures-Painting with fibres - intro to 2D wet felting/felt making

"Thank you so much Heather for an exceptional experience 2D Wet Felt Making....... there were so many good things about the mornings workshop. On arrival Heather was welcoming, open and generous, the workshop space (her beautiful home), was very well equipped, immaculately organised and clean, everything had been carefully considered and prepared. Heather's hospitality and clear step by step instruction allowed for a relaxed and creative atmosphere. Heather clearly has a passion and enviable knowledge for felting and all things textiles but makes this very accessible to students with no experience. The pace of the mornings workshop was perfect and her openness in sharing her in-depth experience was limitless- it was truly a wonderful morning, thank you Heather."

"I had such an enjoyable morning with Heather - really absorbing and fun. It was a pleasure to step away from real life to do something creative and though we were mainly novices, by the end, everyone's work looked really great - thank you! "
