Celebrate the Fall season by creating a unique and decorative wool pumpkin that can be the highlight of your seasonal decor! In this 2 day workshop students will create a three dimensional wet-felted wool pumpkin with opportunity to add personal touches through the application of other fibres and embellishments, including leaves and a wooden handle also known as a peduncle. This is an excellent opportunity to learn the basics of wet felting with wool through step by step instruction. Students will create a one dimensional wet felted wool disc and transform the disc into a 3D shape. The pumpkin will be stuffed and grooves and ridges will be created with thread. All the required tools and materials will be supplied to you, along with demonstration and direct instruction. The completed pumpkin would make a delightful gift or can simply be coveted and enjoyed year after year. This workshop is suitable for all skill levels.
