Description:
In this needle felting class, each participant will have the opportunity to create a small frog sculpture using wool and barbed felting needles. 
Class instruction will include wool types used, needle safety precautions and proper use, how to create a form using core wool, and adding exterior details with dyed wool. 
Examples and demonstration of techniques will be provided, and various dyed wool options will be available to choose from. Though completed sizes vary, the average height and diameter is 3 inches.

Sam Coon is a self-taught fiber artist, and has been making felt since being introduced to both needle felting and wet felting in 2009.

Much of her inspiration is gleaned from the natural environment, particularly patterns, colors, and shapes. From there, various types of items are created including vessels, wall art pieces, sculptures, jewelry, and wearable felted items that are nuno felted. In these art forms, she uses wool fibers that have not been spun or woven, such as Merino or Corriedale. In many instances, fabric, silk and viscose fibers are incorporated to change the textural quality of the felt and for added dimension.

What particularly stands out the most to her, when working with wool to make felt, is that the sculptural qualities of wool are impressive, making creative possibilities seemingly endless. Along with working in the studio, she also regularly teaches needle and wet felting classes at varying locations and age groups.

This workshop is generously co-sponsored by Camden Riverhouse Hotel.
