About this Event
CLASS DESCRIPTION:
In this beginner friendly class, you’ll learn how to apply two-dimensional needle felting techniques to your very own fiber drawing, all made with wool. Felting is a fiber process that uses wool roving or batting, applied in either a wet or dry method, to interlock the fibers into themselves. Applying the dry method, Nastassja will take you through image transferring, creating basic shapes, color blending, layering and building texture. You’ll leave with a unique felted drawing ready to hang!
All materials are provided in a Needle Felting Toolbox.
