Peaceful Heart Alpacas is pleased to announce the second year of our fiber art series: Fun with Felt. For 2012, we will be offering classes in felting scarves, purses, hats, cell phone covers, wall hangings, and totebags. All classes will be taught by local fiber artist Karen Simpson. See the detailed description for more information, pictures and pricing of each class. No knitting or other fiber experience is required. A $25 deposit will reserve your space.
FIBER CLASSES
* For all felting classes you will be using the “Wet Felting Method”. I will teach you that by using warm, soapy water and elbow grease with your choice of colorful wool and alpaca fibers you can create incredible art pieces that you can wear, carry or display!
(Scroll down to see descriptions and examples of the felted pieces we will be creating in our upcoming classes. We are in the process of updating the 2012 classes. The full schedule is listed at the bottom of the page. Check back soon.)
