Quilting Arts Workshop: Wet Felting Essentials for Fiber Artists: Felt, Embellish & Compose with Wool with Jane LaFazio - DVD
Create innovative fiber art with wet felting techniques, embroidery and more!
Join artist Jane LaFazio, one of today's most sought-after teachers, to learn the ancient technique of wet felting. Jane guides viewers step-by-step through the process of creating one-of- a-kind fiber art using just sheep's wool, water, soap, and a fair amount of elbow grease. While making the felted fabric, she adds design and visual interest to the finished product by including contrasting graphic shapes and writing with pre-felted wool roving.
Then she shows you how to take the piece further with hand needle felting and embroidery. Jane also shows how she cuts apart the felted wool and reassembles the pieces into award-winning fiber art, and gives you examples of other ways to use wet felting to create art. This introduction to wet felting is a perfect starting point for anyone interested in creating felted quilts and expanding their fiber art techniques.
