Class description

By popular request, here it is - felting over a ball. Instead of a flat resist, we will use an inflatable ball, thin plastic and pantyhose to create a fantastic vessel with handles. There will be lots of wool and yarn and fancy fibers. There will be water and soap and joyous bouncing! The final product will be a symphony of colors and textures. 

​

  • No experience necessary.

  • All materials and equipment will be provided.

  • Students should bring a lunch and 2 bath towels

Nan learned felting at the Racine Dominican Eco-Justice Center and it quickly became one of her (many) passions. There are endless possibilities when it comes to felting arts – sculpture, garment making, portraiture, landscapes, jewelry. Nan says, “One of the reasons wet felting is so fascinating is that it truly is an ancient art. That connection to the distant past excites me. Needle felting is a comparatively newer form. It’s equally as amazing, though.”

In addition to being a felter, Nan also does looping and stone wrapping. Looping, also known as knotless netting, predates crochet and knitting. In days long gone, it was used to make fishing nets, clothing, and other useful things. Stone wrapping began in Japan hundreds of years ago and had a number of uses. Here it’s used as a decorative art. Fiber arts and stone wrapping are easily combined.

Nan lives on a little slice of heaven off Highway 11 in the Town of Dover with her dogs, horses, Angora goats, chickens and husband. She is also a Subject Matter Expert on plants native to southeastern Wisconsin.
