"My daughter and I had a very enjoyable time doing a wet felting course with Josephine. We were fairly new to felting and she took us through the process in her lovely studio. Josephine shared her extensive experience , skills and knowledge freely with us in a very relaxed and supportive manner . The process itself is quite therapeutic and we could have carried on longer and have been inspired and enabled to have a go at this at home . Hebden bridge also made a lovely and interesting break for us as a family as a bonus . I would thoroughly recommend this course and Josephine . We found wet felting quite addictive ! "

Phinefibre responded:

"Thank you Joanne, glad you enjoyed your mini break in Hebden Bridge. Wonderful to hear you felt inspired by the magical felt making process and feel able to have a go at home. "

"Enjoyed the course, had a wet felt picture to take home rather than an unfinished product and would certainly like to do more! With only 6 in the group we had enough help and attention from Jo."

Phinefibre responded:

"Thank you Helena, delighted you would like to do more felting, it can be addictive! 6 is my maximum so I can help or advise when and where may needed, as I want everyone to go home with a finished felted picture."

"Nov 4-5th. Even as a total beginner I thoroughly enjoyed the two day Wet Felting course with Josephine. She was very patient and explained each progression in detail. It was nice to be in a small group where you had the teachers undivided attention. All the extensive materials that were available allowed you to experiment and the end results were brilliant. I highly recommend. "

"Hi judith, Thank you for taking the time to write me a very kind review and for your recommendation, it is very much appreciated. Delighted you enjoyed the two day “Enchanted Woodland” felting course with a small group, which I prefer so can give each person lots of attention as and when needed. It is wonderful how everyone’s felt picture looks so different, love the versatility and wonderful art of felt making and all the possibilities. "

Jane reviewed: Two day Enchanted Woodland Wet Felt course in Hebden Bridge

"I had a great time on the two day wet felting course 4/5th November. Josephine is a lovely teacher, very friendly and welcoming putting us all at ease from the beginning. She explained about all the different wools and about mixing colours for the picture. She was very clear with instructions and very good at suggesting ideas to improve your picture. I found the two days very relaxing and would definitely recommend it. We were taught in a small group so help and advice was always available. Josephine has an amazing selection of different wools and fibres to try and experiment with. She puts a lot of effort in to making sure that your day is enjoyable and that you come home with a picture that you’re pleased with. Thanks so much, I had a great time. "

Phinefibre responded:

"Thank you Jane for writing such a lovely review, it is much appreciated. It was great to meet you and chat about your aims for the course and ideas to decorate your landing with your own felted wall hangings.

"We both had a fantastic time on the felting 2 day workshop. It was very relaxing and we learnt so much. The different types of sheep and the different wool types wow! Josephine was very clear with instructions and very supportive in helping us create our felted pictures. The whole process was very therapeutic and enjoyable. We would like to frame our pictures and we are definitely looking to book on to another workshop. "

"Myself and my two daughters attended a wet felting workshop with Jo on Saturday 29th April. Jo provided a lovely welcoming environment. In addition her studio is in an old chapel with many original features which was also a joy to spend time in. Jo was very knowledgeable and shared her expertise which allowed the three of us who were all beginners to thoroughly enjoy the day and create felt artwork which we were all proud of - each being able to work at our own pace. The day was very relaxed and there was a fantastic selection of wools, fibres and fabrics to wet our creative juices. Would absolutely recommend trying this craft with Jo - you don't need any previous experience, it is very relaxing and the felt is so forgiving allowing you to amend, add or remove throughout the process. Very addictive! Hope to do more in the future Thank you Jo "

Bev Holmes reviewed: Felt Making Pictures -Introduction

"Have just had a very enjoyable day wet felting. Went with a friend for her birthday and both of us really enjoyed it. Jo was very knowledgeable, explaining the process and different techniques we could use. There was an amazing range of resources, so the range of colours and effects we could include were pretty much unlimited. I would really recommend this course, Jo is really encouraging and patiently allowed us both time to experiment - even though we took much longer than expected!! Thanks Jo, it was fabulous."

Phinefibre responded:

"Thank you Bev and Jenny for your prompt and lovely review. Very happy you enjoyed your day of felt making and my extensive stash of fibres and materials. "
