Feltmaking - Gallery

Ruth makes felt which she uses in her embroideries and also teaches feltmaking.  You can read more about her work as a feltmaker by clicking on the link above - Ruth Black Textile Art.   If you happen to call in on a day when Ruth is feltmaking you will be welcome to watch.  If you have time to spare, she might even be able to fit in an impromptu lesson - but better to book if you can so click on the "Information" menu button above to find our contact details.
