Create your very own wool wall hanging at the spooky trees felting class, with a flying witch if you want to add a little extra flair! Join fiber artist and instructor, Hillary Dow for an afternoon of creativity and fun.

We will use wool sourced from Maine fiber farms to learn multiple needle felting techniques as you transform the puffy piles of wool into a seasonal landscape with a full moon, flying witch, and spooky trees and rolling tree roots that feature dark shadows with 3D depth. Your wool supplies will include a 5 x 7 prepared wool base, silver blue and yellow blended batts, and solid color roving. The rich variety of prepared colors allows for a painterly approach to needle felting.

Hillary will display a showcase of original artwork as well as her children’s books. She is the author, illustrator and publisher of Binding Tales books, featuring pictures she has needle felted with wool sourced from Maine sheep! From Farm to Bookshelf
