May Meeting - Dry Felting
Armed with felting needles, sponges and merino tops, we set about creating our dry felted masterpieces with varying degrees of success! Most of us worked on a floral theme however some members were more ambitious and started some 3D animals - looking forward to seeing what everyone made of their fleece at the next meeting! No photos of this evening so you'll have to use your imagination. (May be for the best!)
