Felted Woodland Animals Workshop

In this class you will have the opportunity to create two or more charming miniature felted critters. You will start with one basic shape and learn how to use a special barbed needle to transform it into a variety of animals such as a mouse, fox, hedgehog, squirrel or owl. In addition, you will use the wet felting technique to further enhance the shape and firmness of the figure.

**Please note that this workshop will last 3 hours**
