Default Does anyone do hand felting?

I'm trying to find somewhere near me where I can learn hand felting and so far haven't had any luck so I thought I'd see if anyone here does it?

I've felted before...it's how I made my first soft bodied sculpture. But as far as how to learn it, well, I just picked up some batting and started poking the crap out of it with a felting needle till it did what I wanted it to do.

Default Re: Does anyone do hand felting?

I do hand felting as well. Also wet and nuno. Rosefairies we need to have a stitch and bitch when you ever have a free moment again.

I have posted a few pictures on my flickr page of things I have made. http://www.flickr.com/photos/renstyles/ The dolls are mostly what I have needle felted so far. Though I have used needle felting in other pieces just to make sure everything is attached before I wet felt it.

The place I visit is: http://feltingforum.com/phpbb/index.php They cover all kinds of felting, suppliers and share ideas. For the dolls I actually bought a class from this person. http://www.feltalive.com/?ref=ffbanner

Fee moment? I mean free moment. What is that? I don't think I am ever going to get unburied from all the school work.

I haven't forgotten about locating the information. It's just that I am too many labs behind to do much anything else.
