We are a small group of felters, sharing ideas and learning as we go. We use needle felting techniques and at times wet felting. We meet on the 1st and 3rd Thursday of each month, 1.30-3.30pm at 27a Elizabeth Street (across the railway line). You are welcome to call in to see what felting is all about or contact:
