As you may know Fibrefest is offering a range of textile workshops from the 29th August to the 2nd September, these include felt making, tapestry weaving, spinning, knitting and peg loom weaving. There will also be two seminars - a brief history of the woollen industry in Devon and Indigo Past and Present. They are all booking fast, so download the booking form and apply soon to avoid disappointment!

We are so pleased that two artists will also be at the festival creating unique works of textile art. Sue Graham will be making a textile installation from a variety of yarn types. This links in with her interest in weaving without a loom and nomadic life.
There is also the opportunity to work with Gordon Field on a series of Blackdown Hills dragon banners made using felt. He has been researching the history of dragons in the area and will be able to tell you a few stories while you work! All this work will culminate in a procession of the banners around the festival at the end of each day.
