Workshops & Classes
Being Creative from Within
I am offering a variety of felting classes where you can learn new skills or improve your felting skills.
I offer one to two day classes up to 5 students.
They are held in my studio, conveniently located in Ganges at 127 Rainbow Road, Salt Spring Island.
I am a professional feltmaker and educator and support every student, whether you are new to feltmaking or have experience, and will guide you through with your creations from idea to finished felted project.

This is a comprehensive introduction into layered and sandwiched felting techniques.
