Felt Making

Description

Felt is the oldest textile known to humankind, dating back around 8000 years. Today’s handmade felt uses the same techniques, although our tools have been updated. In this class we will explore various methods of creating both flat and three-dimensional felt through weekly projects. This class is appropriate for beginners as well as those with some felt making experience. All materials will be provided, with a fee of $60 payable directly to the instructor at the first class.

 Elizabeth Stubbs has been an artist all her life, working in a variety of mediums.  For the past twenty years she has been exploring felt making as an art form and sharing it with others through classes and workshops at several locations including the Winsor School, Waldorf School of Lexington, ArtSpan Lexington, Umbrella Community Arts and with private students.
