Artist and Felt maker Raya Brown is working with children on Felted Wall Hanging at Severn Sounds Festival 2015 in Worcester

The children really loved working with artist Raya Brown at Severn Sounds Family Festival in Worcester on May 31st 2015.

“We had a so many enthusiastic and creative children who helped us make a wall hanging for New Hope in Worcester.  The children designed a picture themselves, then they helped us to recreate it using wool and other fibres. They had so much fun while making it felt- rubbing and rolling it, wetting and adding soap to it. At the end they made a big roll and were shrinking it by rolling it with their feet and arms.

They really enjoyed the day and all together with joint efforts we managed to raise  £1869.15.

Well done everybody!”   Raya Brown said.
