Joyous Disruption: Wet Felting Workshop

  • Da Vinci Art Alliance 704 Catharine Street Philadelphia, PA, 19147 United States (map)

Sunday, December 11th, 2:30 - 4:30pm

Are you Fiber-Curious? Have you wondered how felt is made or wanted to try to make felt yourself?

In this workshop we'll discuss the basics of felt-making from a brief overview of the history of felting, to the tools needed, to a discussion of various fibers and embellishments that can make your felting interesting and textural. We'll create a small sample of felt from scratch. Through this workshop you'll gain a basic understanding of the techniques that can be used to turn your roving into a beautiful piece of fabric, jewelry or wall-hanging.

Please note that the process of felt is physical and requires the use of hands, arms and fingers.
