Yarn flowers are versatile and a great way to use up small bits of yarn. We will explore creating yarn flowers and then turn them into brooches\, garlands and more! Feel free to bring old yarn to incorporate if you wish\, but we will have plenty of materials here. This is a beginner friendly class. \n\n\n\nClasses are held in the comfort of our converted double bay garage.  It is on the street level and equipped with a powder room.  If the class is full we may ask you to park at the bottom of the driveway and walk up the short distance past the alpaca fields.  We have a farm shop on the property that you are also welcome to visit.  Feel free to BYOB or snacks.  Pictures and fun are encouraged!   \n\n\n\nInstructor: Farren MaillieI am a fiber artist specializing in all things squishy and wool. I am passionate about sustainable art and love creating nature inspired pieces with materials collected from our bountiful world. You are likely to find me in the forest looking for inspiration\, fairy doors and gnomes.

Create this 2D scene and remember the beauty of fall year round.   \n\n\n\nNeedle felting is a process that sculpts wool into any shape you imagine.  Wool fibers are covered with scales.  In needle felting we use special barbed needles that lock the scales of the fiber together through agitation.  What this looks like in real time\, is stabbing fluffy colorful wool over and over with sharp needles.  We will be using a variety of fibers for this project.

Ebb and Flow.  The rhythm of the ocean brings such calm and peace.  Create this 2D scene and breathe in the shore serenity.   \n\n\n\nNeedle felting is a process that sculpts wool into any shape you imagine.  Wool fibers are covered with scales.  In needle felting we use special barbed needles that lock the scales of the fiber together through agitation.  What this looks like in real time\, is stabbing fluffy colorful wool over and over with sharp needles.  We will be using a variety of fibers for this project. This is a beginner friendly class. \n\n\n\nClasses are held in the comfort of our converted double bay garage.  It is on the street level and equipped with a powder room.  If the class is full we may ask you to park at the bottom of the driveway and walk up the short distance past the alpaca fields.  We have a farm shop on the property that you are also welcome to visit.  Feel free to BYOB or snacks.  Pictures and fun are encouraged!   \n\n\n\nInstructor: Farren MaillieI am a fiber artist specializing in all things squishy and wool. I am passionate about sustainable art and love creating nature inspired pieces with materials collected from our bountiful world.
