Needle Felt a Cute Chickadee
Class Description: Learn to needle felt a little feathered friend (or at least a wooly feathered friend!). This little bird will help introduce a beginner to needle felting and prove to be a great project to add to your skills if you already have some experience. A set of legs will be included in your supplies to make it easier to get good results. We will be blending fiber colors to give the bird some more realistic tones… which gives you the opportunity to “play” a little with the outcome. Bring your sense of humor and imagination as always.
