Felting for the Kitchen

Course Overview

The kitchen is a great place for handmade wool items. Potholders, tea cozies, cup cozies, placemats, hotpads, table runners, dish scrubbies, felted soap balls-- all these projects use the basic method of taking wool batting or roving, adding designs with a felting needle (or not), and using water, soap and agitation to create durable, washable, beautiful, and practical things. Students follow their skill level and Elise will guide you to create what you have in your imagination. Everyone will learn from each other and undoubtedly be inspired and challenged. Students are welcome to take just the first day of this course for 50% of tuition.
