Crafter [Kraff-tuhr] – Any individual who has the tenacity to pick up a knitting needle, crochet hook, felting needle, bobbin, spindle, shuttle, sewing needle, and whatever other tool of a crafting nature to create beautiful expressions of our self! And we throw parties for anyone who is willing to rip apart their work to make it right. That’s audacity!! Cheers to you!
October 12 and 13, we will once again be bringing Suzoo’s Wool Works to the people. As I said before shaking hands has more impact than a one page, full color ad in a magazine. People throw magazines away, but they never forget that first impression you make with a handshake, a smile or just a little help on a crafting project. I stand firm in my belief that “it takes a Village to raise a Crafter.”
So let’s get down to it…shall we?

Needle Felted Pumpkins with Jennifer
Jennifer (that’s me) has been an artist all of her life. Needle felting is similar to sculpting or throwing pottery. You have to be aware of the impact of your movement and intention. We learn the basics of sculpting pumpkins from Kraemer Mauch Chunky roving through out the day. Demos will be available along with kits for the Crafter and finished pumpkins for quick gifts. We offer free instruction the rest of October with purchase of the $10.00 pumpkin kit!
My favorite things…the Harvest and my Rudolf!
So Crafters, come one and all! We are excited to share our talents and wisdom with you. Perhaps you will teach us a think or two. We are excited to have you as a member of our Village of Crafters!
All the best,
Jennifer
