Fabric Art Needle Felting Class

In this class you will learn the art of needle felting and how to create a design on a piece of fabric. Choose a design from a handful of patterns or create your own. Learn to transfer a pattern to fabric, fill in the design with roving, and needle felt the fiber in place. Or skip the pattern and just let the design evolve. We will be working on upholstery fabric samples of different weights and textures, some with designs that can potentially be incorporated into the felted design that you create. This is a very simple form of needle felting, and will give you a good understanding of the process. The sky is the limit when it comes to the design you create.

Finishing options are described on our website, and are up to student to do complete at home.

WHAT IS NEEDLE FELTING
Needle felting is the process of using a single barbed needle to repeatedly jab alpaca/wool fibers causing the fiber to tangle and become compact. Both two and three dimensional pieces can be created using this craft.
