We will be using a variety of fibers to create this jellyfish. We will begin with the wet felting process, take a short break, and resume with needle felting and adding the tentacles. Please feel free to pack a snack and BYOB for the break time. This jellyfish makes a great gift for someone with a shore house or has a love for sea creatures.
Instructor: Farren Maillie
I am a fiber artist specializing in all things squishy and wool. I am passionate about sustainable art and love creating nature inspired pieces with materials collected from our bountiful world. You are likely to find me in the forest looking for inspiration, fairy doors and gnomes.
I'm so excited to share this unique art form with you.
Needle felting is a process that sculpts wool into any shape you imagine. Wool fibers are covered with scales. When you agitate the fibers, the scales lock together and thus, the felting occurs. In needle felting we use special barbed needles that lock the scales of the fiber together. What this looks like in real time, is stabbing fluffy colorful wool over and over with sharp needles. Wet felting uses that same 'shock' factor to agitate the fibers into a smooth piece.
Classes are held in the comfort of our converted double bay garage. It is on the street level and equipped with a powder room. If the class is full we may ask you to park at the bottom of the driveway and walk up the short distance past the alpaca fields. We have a farm shop on the property that you are also welcome to visit. Feel free to BYOB or snacks. Pictures and fun are encouraged!
