Craft as well as prayer, often thrives with careful, focused attention.
Working with felt, in particular, allows for working with rich colours and textures, binding together loose threads to make a whole.
On the Friday evening we’ll learn a flat felt technique which can be applied to book covers or hangings. On Saturday will be 3D felting with which you could make a bag, slippers or a hat. On Sunday will be needle felting which can be used to create a 3D sculpture or embellishing a picture. Time for quiet concentration as you learn or develop this craft, prayer in the monastic rhythm and happy chats around the table.
Full instructions and materials are provided. Suitable for complete beginners.
