Classes
ONSITE: Felt Your Pet in 2D
Learn how to apply two-dimensional needle felting techniques to make a felted portrait of your pet on fabric. With a printed out image of your pet, we will go through transferring an outline on fabric, filling in large shapes and adding in details with texture and layering. You’ll leave with a finished portrait of your furry friend ready to hang in an embroidery hoop!
