Kilmoyley Hurlers 1907, a new tenner and needle felting in Craftshop na Méar





Check out the Kilmoyley hurling team of 1907. The photo comes from the National Library. It would appear that they played in bare feet. I wonder if anyone recognizes any of these tough men from their family tree.


That was then; this is now

These people attended the first needle felting workshop in Craftshop na Méar on Saturday Jan 11 2014. The next class will be on January 25th and we will learn about wet felting. We will bring a jam jar and come away with "a work of art" The taster class costs €10 including a light snack in Scribes  and it starts at 2.00 p.m.
