Classes
Felted Memories
Students will source imagery from the fondest memories to recreate a two-dimensional felted portrait with wool. Using a piece of felt fabric to size, we will apply transfer methods to allow for an exact fiber replica of the original photo. Then, with a specific set of needles, we will add all the details needed to bring these moments to life.
