Let it snow!

On November 14th (I can’t believe a week has gone by already!) I taught a class at the Beehive Wool Shop on needle felted snowmen.  We had a lot of fun, many laughs, and some very pleasing snowmen were created.

Flowers are fun…

My first flower workshop has been completed – another coming up on April 18 (see the Classes page for more information).  I think everyone had a lot of fun in class this morning.  I’m always so pleased to see how different everyone’s final project is… each flower was unique.  Everyone made a beautiful and whimsical creation.  I find it very inspiring… thanks all!

Spring has sprung…

Or at least it’s trying to… the rains are starting to bring out some lovely flowers.  I was so excited to see cherry blossoms the other day – one of my favourites.  Interested in surrounding yourself with flowers?  A new class has been scheduled at the Beehive Wool Shop so you can learn how to create your own needle felted Spring flower.

If interested, contact the Beehive to sign up for the class on March 21, from 10:30-12:30. Class space is limited, so sign up today!

Roving, roving, everywhere roving…

Today was the first of two Christmas ornament workshops (still room in the second workshop on December 13th – see the Classes page for more details) – it was a lot of fun… a great bunch of students making some pretty fabulous ornaments!

Last night, after I had put together all the material for the class, I decided to make one last ornament.  Smudge decided she had been ignored and shooed away quite enough, so she decided to “help”.  Sigh…

Pumpkin-a-polooza

Pumpkins, pumpkins, everywhere pumpkins!  The needle felted pumpkin workshop happened today at the Beehive Wool Shop, and I think a good time was had by all.  I was able to take pictures of the table before class, but unfortunately I forgot to charge my phone (a common occurrence), so I wasn’t able to take pictures of some of the finished pumpkins.

I was so impressed what people produced – each pumpkin was unique and dear and full of personality!  Below is a picture of one of my pumpkins looking a little like it’s going to pounce on the chocolate pumpkin.
