Textile Artists Project - Felted Balls

In the month of March, the Toowoomba Quilter's Textile Art Group (TAG) created felted balls from wool roving.  Our very talented member, Chris Dowell, instructed the members on how to go about it.  It was a lot of fun and we decided we needed to do something creative with them.

At our get together in May, we worked on making our felted balls up into various articles.  Some ladies did Christmas decorations and some made jewellery.

Next month, the TAGER's are going to make some fabric beads out of interesting scraps of fabrics and yarns etc.

  

You do have to be a member of Toowoomba Quilters Club to join the Textile Art Group, so if you would like to join us, just come along to our meeting place on the 3rd Saturday of the month and go from there!
