[Nfb-krafters-korner] Felting?

[Tracy Carcione]

I have done some felting, but not needle felting.  Sounds interesting.
The kind I did was deliberately washing my knitted project in hot water and
agitating it a lot, so that the fibers stuck together and shrank.  It was a
bit shocking to do, at first.  I made some nifty felt hats that way.

Felting?

Oh cool!

Needle felting?

What kind of projects do the kids do?

I haven't tried felting, but, definitely want to.

I am getting ready to teach a felting class to a group of 4-H kids.  There
is a summer camp called Clover College where I teach this class.  I have
taught felting for the past 4 or so years.  The kids are so creative!  I
take a vacation day off of work to volunteer to teach this class.  

I'm letting my hand rest and heal right now so not doing much other crafts
right at this moment.  I do have a few more projects to get ready for
convention and Tammy and I were going to make some embossed cards to sell at
our table.  

Alyssa is moving into her own apartment and I have made her a few things
lately like some decorated t-towels, and a crochet towels holder for the
stove.  

That is about it for now.  

Cindy  Z.
