Wet Felt An Abstract Art Pillow (December 7/8)

With the holiday season around the corner from this special new 2-day workshop, you will not only learn about the art of wet felting, but will also have a beautiful gift to offer a loved one or yourself!

This workshop takes place over two days: Saturday, October 7, 2024 from 10 AM - 5 PM and Sunday, October 8th from 10AM - 3PM.

In this weekend workshop, you will learn to felt with wool fibres using water, soap and agitation. The focus with this particular class will be to play with colour and fibres to achieve a lovely abstract effect of your choosing. On day 1, you will create and felt your design. On day 2, you will choose from any number of embellishment techniques to adorn your now-dry piece. Examples of embellishment options include: stitching, embroidery, beading, Swarovsky crystals, and any other findings we have on-hand or which you can bring if you please.

You will stitch your finished work onto an 18" x 18" blank, linen throw cushion pillow cover. 

All your supplies will be included (fibres, pillowcase, embellishment materials), along with a tasty morning offering of baked goodies, coffee or tea, and a healthy lunch on Day 1. You will be asked to bring your own lunch Day 2, but morning goodies still await on that day.

This class runs Saturday 10 - 5, and Sunday 10 - 3.
