Well Being Centre

I think I’ve posted a couple of photos from the Well-Being centre once or twice before, but definitely not for a while, so I thought I’d take some to share today. There were only two of us in the class, so it’s easy to see the room better. This is from the window end looking towards the door, a massive sink is on the right:

I took these photos on my phone so they’re not the best quality, but the colours are a lot better. This is from the window end again, we usually have the equipment on the side table and if we get a lot of supplies out, we put them on the grey benches under the window.

Since there was just the two of us, we put it all on the side table:

The room is used by lots of different craft groups, there are supplies and examples of work all around:

Cath was making a coaster with lots of natural wools:

She’s trying to sneak some Gotland locks while I’m taking the photo!

Action shot:

I was working on a black and purple piece with lots of undyed fibres:

As usual we ended up chatting loads and I didn’t get any more photos, but I’ll try to remember to show the finished pieces next time 🙂

I’m still recovering from a really nasty bout of flu, so I hope you don’t mind a short post on the well being centre again. Jo and Julie both brought their pieces from the week before in. This was Jo’s:

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERAWe got finished really quickly and were chatting about shrinkage, so we quickly laid out some small pieces to felt and full into coasters. This is Linda’s during layout:

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERAWe kept rubbing to shrink and firm until it was time to pack up,  and had quite a work out. I think Jo had shrunk her’s the most and it stood up without flopping over.
