Workshops

 

Learn the fine art of felting in a workshop that features a step-by-step process for creating

a magically unique felt art piece.  Learn how to select wool, and with soap and water create

an original felted piece all your own. Learn how to design your piece, resulting in an artful

seamless hand bag, vessel,  hat or even mittens. Incorporate colored yarn, exotic fibers,

feathers or beads to make your piece special. Beginners are welcome, but experienced

felters will appreciate Susan's creative approach to the medium and find much to expand

their knowledge, as well as a fun and meaningful workshop experience.
