Gillian reviewed: Unique Wet Felting Workshop in South Lakes at the Heron Corn Mill in Beetham, near Milnthorpe

"Before the course Erika wanted to know my interests and aspirations for working with felt. It was a completely new skill for me but I outlined what my artistic ideas were. On the day of the course Erika guided me through the whole process with skills, empathy and astute understanding every step of the way. My resulting felt sculpture was amazing. I had no preconceived ideas but I was lead by the process and materials. I now understand something about felting. I intend to do another course to continue my journey into this ancient skill. The other participants, who had all been before embarked on their own projects guided by Erika. By observing these my skills were further enhanced. The day was intuitive not to a set timetable. Breaks for lunch were taken to fit with your own project and pace of working. One of the best day courses in Cumbria. Thank you Erika"

Erika Sojkova Grime responded:

"Thank you, Gill, for such a fantastic review. It was a real pleasure meeting you at the workshop and guiding you through the day. We all found your amazing sculpture truly inspirational and I am looking forward to you joining us again in the future. Thank you again, Erika "

"Fab day yesterday with crafters. Ericka was her usual knowledgable, helpful and patient self with us all. Great selection of wools as always. I love the slippers I made for a gift and will be making more. This is my second Worksop with Ericka and looking forward to many more. So enjoyable, relaxed atmosphere, highly recommend. "

Erika Sojkova Grime responded:

"Thank you for joining us yesterday Jo and the great review. Your slippers are beautiful and I can imagine that person who will get them as a gift will love them. I am looking forward to seeing you back at the workshop. "

"Thoroughly enjoyed wet felting workshop with Erika who is a delight & so much knowledge, always on hand to help and such an array of colours available was so much fun. Picking up tips from other crafters was helpful too. Would definitely recommend and am going again! "

Erika Sojkova Grime responded:

"Thank you very much for such a great review, Jo and for coming back again next month 🙂. It was great meeting you at the workshop and teaching you about 3D wet felting, the materials and making a felted bag. Your bag is beautiful and I can't wait to see it dry and completed with leather handles. Erika"
