Textile Artist &amp; Teacher, Loretta Sloan has been a creative soul from an early age.Based in Karumata Leeston, Waitaha Canterbury.

Awarded highly commended 2011.I have gathered just over 30years of experience, working with NZ Wool in various mediums, creating beautiful, unique forms of art.Start of 2022 guided me that it is my vocation to become a full-time maker and artist, to be able to fulfil and walk this path, &amp; offer you the methods and techniques that have shaped me as a textile artist is an absolute dream. I believe anyone who wants to be an artist can be an artist, I can give you all the basic tools, to show and inspire you the potential that wool can offer in the artistic world we all live in.Wool is the most forgiving medium of art you will encounter, &amp; my favorite quality about wool is there is no wastage.Felting offers a never-ending stream of limitless possibilities, from traditional methods to contemporary designs. It’s a pure gift that I can share my passion and love for wool.Spaces are limited so Book NowWorkshops are @ The Hub Hornby, 418 Main South Road, Christchurch - House of Felt pop up store - (In between Just Cuts &amp; Jeans West)
