Needle Felting Class #1

We started off our new TGIF Spring semester today with some Dryer Balls!petalstopicots_wool_dryer_balls_02

Our Needle Nuts received their needle felting supplies today and we got to pokin'!
Each student received their own needle felting kit which includes needles, handles, two leather thimbles, scissors, and a foam felting mat.  If students want to work on felting at home, they may take a some of the supplies home, but it will be important to remember to bring them back each week.

If you need a reminder of how to get started, there is a simple guide at Needle Felting 101
and specifically making dryer balls at 3 Ways to Make Felted Wool Dryer Balls

We will get into making some Wooly Friends next week!
