Think Christmas and beyond!   You’ll be using both wet felting and needle felting techniques with local instructor and fiber artist Betsey Leslie of Ewes to You in New Gloucester, ME.

Fun for all levels from beginner to advanced felters.  We will be creating 3 hanging ornaments and a self standing figure combining wet and needle felting techniques.

First we will wet felt the styrofoam balls with wool and then use felting needles in different sizes to sculpt wool onto the base for these great 3D ornaments including Santa, snowmen or snow women and the knowledge to make your own original design.  Have some fun and get a start on your handmade holiday gifts!

All of the wool is hand dyed specially for this class and everything you need for materials is provided.
