Felting with a Resist

Have you wondered how to make felt vessels? Hats? bags? If so, then come explore felting with a resist and decide if you want to continue this exploration with a bigger project later.

We will use a simple resist to create a cup cozy (or simple vessel, tealight holder). You’ll get a feel for making even felt layers as you build the cozy over the resist. We will work with undyed wool as the primary felting material, but you will have access to a fiber bar with colors and textures to add a design to your project.

Saturday, January 9, 2016, 9am-Noon , at Potwin Presbyterian Church, Memorial Hall, CLASS MINIMUM 6, MAXIMUM 12
