Felting with Rosie *Deadline Passed*
Instructed by: Rosie Dittmann
January 21, 2012 (Sat) - 9 am - 4 pm
Class Fee: $40.00 Supply Fee: $20.00
Rosie Dittmann will be sharing her felting expertise with us for her Felting with Rosie workshop. During this workshop you will make a felted hat. These hats are seamless and worked in one piece around a plastic template. For the class Rosie will have patterns of different hats for you to choose from. The hats shown have a rolled brim, but you can make a brimmed hat, beret or whatever type you like (well almost). If you have a design in mind, or just a shape, bring that along to class and you can make your template to match that. Better yet, if you can email or send Rosie dittmann@centurytel.net your idea, and she will work on a pattern before class. Rosie will have some colors to choose from, including dyed, painted, and some natural colored roving. If you have a color preference for your hat let her know. She will be ordering more fiber and can get a color for you.
Normally this would be one long day or a 2 day, workshop, so some felting experience is needed. Once the hat is started you should be able to take it home to finish.
Rosie will provide the plastic template (which will be available for purchase if you want), bubble wrap, soap, fiber, etc. Participants should bring paper, pencil and scissors. If you have a hat mold, bring it along. And don’t forget a dish to pass for lunch.
There is limited space, so register early by calling or emailing LeAnna at 920-845-5571 or kelealpaca@aol.com. We are offering two dates, Jan. 21st and Jan. 28th.
