Classes for high school students
Explore the ancient and magical hands-on fiber art process of wet-felting and create a unique 42-inch wool table runner to adorn your home or give as a one-of-a-kind gift. We will pre-felt a base layer from wool batting, add fine merino roving to create the design, and then wet-felt to create a fabric with structural integrity. You can also cut your felted piece in half to make two placemats or pillow covers.
Betsey Cogswell is a Malden-based fiber artist who has been making art for many years. Her love of felting began when she purchased a piece of art from a master felter, and thought to herself, "I want to do this!" She has taken workshops with master felter Martien Van Zuilen, and Nuno felter Janice Kissinger and is also self-taught.
