Convergence is a gathering of felt makers and sharing knowledge is the underlying theme. It is four full days of immersion and indulgence in every aspect of felt making suitable for all levels of experience. Anyone interested in felt making and textiles should attend. There is no need to belong to a formal textile organisation or felting group. Just come along, learn, share, felt and have fun.

Bunbury Felting Group - 11th Southern Hemisphere Felting Convergence ABN 62663714697

The 11th Southern Hemisphere Felting Convergence was a fabulous five days in October 2011 at Bunbury Western Australia.

The Convergence may be over but we are still felting so please join us at the Bunbury Felting Group blog.

Felt Jewellery

Let’s face it, felt jewellery can be tricky. So often it’s a case of just because we can doesn’t mean we should. Some felters however produce beautiful pieces and Kim of the Bunbury Felters group is one of those talented individuals.
Kim’s flair seems to be instinctive. Just new to felting, she decided to start small and from experiments making balls and discs her felt jewellery was born.



Not surprisingly Kim’s first necklace was snapped up straight away. The purchaser was going to the 10th Felt Convergence at Masterton and was looking for something to go with the dress she was planning to wear.

Kim made 3 more necklaces and put them in to Stirling Street Art Centre’s “Out of Our Desert” exhibition. They sold before the exhibition opened.



Looks like you have a talent Kim.



We love them.
