The Victorian Feltmakers Inc is
a voluntary organisation with around 200 members. These are feltmakers ranging from beginners
to experienced. We meet to share the latest feltmaking techniques,
keep up to date with happenings in the world of felt and wool fibre,
and share and support the development of the feltmaking community.

and six issues per year of Feltlines magazine.
