Felted Wool Cushion Covers

Teacher: Kristina Foley | Date: Sun, 02.09 , 10am-4pm | Location: SE Division Studio
Tuition: $170 | Materials: $50

Sumptuous, irresistibly comfortable and entirely sustainable: join fiber artist Kristina Foley in applying the ancient process of wet felting to create a sophisticated pillow form. More info...

Using luxurious and thoughtfully sourced undyed natural fibers such as merino wool, silk and alpaca, students will learn how to create homogenous fabrics in a subtle natural palette. Kristina will offer a step by step demonstration in using a resist pattern when felting to create a three dimensional cushion cover without sewing. Participants will explore integrating natural fibers and gauze fabrics into a wool base to feature their unique textural properties when felted.

Students will leave class with a 20”x20” custom designed wool pillow cover and the knowledge to select and process raw fibers for future wet felting projects.
