This workshop focuses on creating a unique felted wool tapestry. Begin with the wet felting technique, “painting” with a myriad of colorful wool fibers to design a piece approximately 20 x 24 inches before felting. Participants will also explore nuno felting, incorporating fabric elements (bring open-weave fabrics and silks if you like, though some materials will be provided.) Day One will cover wet felting—rolling, rubbing, and tossing the fibers to bond and shrink them into a stable textile. Pieces will dry overnight. On Day Two, we will enhance and finish the tapestries using dry (needle) felting, along with stitching, embroidery, beading, and cutting techniques.
