In this beginner's felting class, you will be learning to needle felt your choice of a Spring Chick, a Red Cardinal, or a Bluebird. No experience necessary. You will learn the basics of needle felting a three dimensional object, how to create a core shape, apply an outer color, create wings on a flat surface, use a felting stick, and how to wrap wire for bendable legs. You can accessorize your bird with a scarf, or perhaps a Spring Bonnet, as time permits. Go home with a finished project by the end of class to add to your Spring decorations, or give to a friend!
