Paint a Picture with Wool

This is a great class to learn about needle felting. You will learn how to transfer a picture onto a piece of prefelt and then, using wool and felting needles, you will add the color and dimension to bring it to life. Your picture will be aprox. 8" x 10" and will be one or two dimensional. The finished picture will be ready to mat and frame. We will also discuss how to felt a picture to embellish a bag or clothing if you choose to do that.
