Description:
"Whether used as a lovely sculpted display, an ornament, or even as a pincushion, needle felted mushrooms are a fun project to create for all levels: those starting out, and those already familiar with the process. Class instruction will include wool types used, needle safety precautions and proper use, how to create a form using core wool, and adding exterior details with #DyedWool. Examples will be provided, such as fly agarics, boletes, chanterelles, and russulas. Students will be able to complete 1-2 mushrooms by the end of the class session, depending on the size and details.
"Sam Coon is a self-taught #FiberArtist, and has been making felt since being introduced to both needle felting and wet felting in 2009.
"Much of her inspiration is gleaned from the natural environment, particularly patterns, colors, and shapes. From there, various types of items are created including vessels, wall art pieces, sculptures, jewelry, and wearable felted items that are nuno felted. In these art forms, she uses wool fibers that have not been spun or woven, such as Merino or Corriedale. In many instances, fabric, silk and viscose fibers are incorporated to change the textural quality of the felt and for added dimension.
"What particularly stands out the most to her, when working with wool to make felt, is that the sculptural qualities of wool are impressive, making creative possibilities seemingly endless. Along with working in the studio, she also regularly teaches needle and wet felting classes at varying locations and age groups.
"This workshop is generously co-sponsored by Camden Riverhouse Hotel.
"#Merryspring is your community nature center offering #WalkingTrails, cultivated #gardens, #wildlife, and #ecology and #horticulture educational programs all year round. The park is located at the end of Conway Road, just off of Route 1 in Camden behind Hannaford Shopping Plaza."

It was a busy weekend, but I promise I have still be at my #FebruaryKnittingChallenge in support of Canadian Cancer Society! I made these little bookmarks for my partners and got around to blocking a few recently finished pieces!
Today, I am also sharing one of my mom's macrame plant holders! I also have one of these in my apartment that I am hoping to get a plant for soon!
We are a little over halfway through the month now and $135 away from my goal! If you would like to contribute to getting me the rest of the way there, you can donate here: https://fundraisemyway.cancer.ca/participants/44355
