workshop in Hattem, studio:
“without any experience in felting we went to Willeke in her studio. There was a good atmosphere, the explanation was clear and was repeated and shown when necessary. It was relaxed, we could all make something beautiful and it didn’t have to be perfect! Willeke has given us a fun evening and as a bonus taught us the basics of felting. It was a succes!
