Today’s class was about the different ways you could dress up a Scarecrow in wool, mohair and fabric. My two students, Brenda and Kim were troopers with sewing skills and good imaginations. It was a thrill to go through the process of creating together.

Felting is a very soothing experience. I liken it to clay sculpture because you will get what you are thinking about…flat surfaces, wonky shapes, unusual proportions. Ultimately you want to create someting of which you are proud. With that being said, it’s always good to let your first project be about the process! I alwasy send you home with leftovers.
