Maker's bio

I am passionate about felting and enjoy experimenting with new ideas and techniques. Wool is an incredibly versatile material which makes it perfect for 3D felting. I particularly enjoy creating landscapes and incorporate mixed fibres to add texture and interest. I am also interested in Shibori techniques and run courses in the community. I live in Teesdale, Co. Durham and much of my artwork is inspired by its beautiful landscape.

Jane King reviewed: Whole day wet felted landscape workshop with Teesdale Felt

"I had a wonderful day on the wet felting course, I really enjoyed it. There were plenty of materials available and Claire talked us through each stage in a very helpful way. She was always on hand to offer help and advice and show us techniques to help us to improve our pictures, so we all came away with pictures we were pleased with. I would definitely recommend this course. Thank you Claire for a lovely day. "

"HI Jane, Thank you so much for your lovely positive review. I am so pleased you enjoyed my landscape workshop and your picture was beautiful. I hope to work with you again in the future. Very best wishes, Claire "

Linda Ward reviewed: Whole day wet felted landscape workshop with Teesdale Felt

"We thoroughly enjoyed our day wet felting with an abundance of materials/tools provided, the venue was lovely and Claire was very friendly, knowledgeable and patient. We had a class of 5 which was a nice size to get to know each other. I’d highly recommend this course to anyone, we had never done anything like this before and managed to produce a landscape! "

Teesdale Felt responded:

"Hi Linda, Thank you so much for your fantastic review. I am so pleased you enjoyed the day and I hope that you have found somewhere to display your beautiful landscape! I hope to work with you again soon. Best wishes, Claire xx"
