BAGS! 9 of them...no images of the "in progress" (sad face)! I was way too busy!!! We had so much fun. Alice, Michelle, Sally, Annette, Alice, Jenn, Anita, Cathy and Ellen!Well...first things first. My students R-O-C-K! It is such a pleasure to teach those with a little (and a lot) of know-how. These fabulous ladies came ready to create. I was so excited to stretch in all kinds of directions to help them acheive an amazing array of variety in their felt work.
There were alot of open ears and open minds as I spoke of "Fiber Dynamics", as taught to me by Chris White. There were a few good little nuggets and I hope they will continue to think, experiment and learn whenever and where ever they can. The possibilites are endless. A special thanks to all those who traveled to come see me. I could not have asked for a better group. Hugs all around....

ReplyDeleteJoyce...I L-o-v-e Pittburgh! If you have a group, I could come. Do you know Annie the feltmaker?
ReplyDeleteHey we have a South Pittsburg and it's called "The Tidiest Town in Tennessee". You could come here to teach and then I could check one more thing off my 'Bucket List'!
ReplyDeleteI like tidy towns! :o)
ReplyDeleteI just found your blog on Pinterest and am now following! What a wonderful fiber artist you are! I have a big bag of felt and some felting needles that have been sitting in a box for a few years, you have inspired me to go make something with it!
