felting





i've been wanting to learn how to wet felt for a long time. when my course starts in january, one of the things i've been asked to teach is felting. so yesterday brenda kindly offered a felting workshop to a small group of us.i'm so excited about this process that i couldn't sleep last night. we made flat felt, then balls, then bracelets and then a 3d object - purses, hats, tea cozies and bowls. this is my first bowl. love it. of course it wasn't all hard work. we had a lovely festive picnic mid-day and some of us got silly... (that's robyn with her partially felted tea cozie on her head). thank-you brenda for passing on your knowledge.
