That is what visitors to the shop have been saying all weekend as the happy buzz of many people working and chatting has filtered down from the workshop above the shop. Cat Moore led a workshop teaching people to 'Get Started With Felting' on Saturday
This was an introduction to the marvelous medium of felting. Cat led them through the basics and beyond and everyone made several pieces of colourful flat felt. Very satisfying!
And so MAKE has had it's busiest workshop weekend since we opened. On Sunday Aimee and the girls met together to make party bunting, paper flowers, badges and much more for her wedding in August.
(that's Aimee with the bunny ears of course!) So much creativity in on place!
miles and miles of paper bunting!
And see there in the corner? My badge machine used to make 100 badges with characters from the Muppets to be worn instead of buttonholes! Classy! This is going to be a wonderful wedding!
Paper chains too - start 'em young I say!
I am so pleased with the way the workshop is being used by so many different groups - Open Workshop Thursday was a joy last week - my first day open until 9.00pm - which I will do on the Second Thursday every month now in addition to the weekly sessions in the day time - very friendly - with homegrown strawberries and home grown cake (thank you Anne, Jayne and Jan)
This week I will get the place tidy and ready for Pauline and the Patchworks girls on Friday!
Working on the School Holiday Crafting Fun Programme now - could do with a better title than that!
Commiserations to Holland and well done Spain - and how that bloke evaded a red card for that kick remains a mystery - does that look like football to you?
Finally - a felted horse has come to join the rest of the team - Apple - a subliminal message to the Universe for Owen
