BARBED WIRE

NEEDLEFELT PRELIMS.

INTERMEDIATE 3-D ART

dyed wool roving, wool locks, recycled wet felted pieces leftovers, & handspun yarns

Before I show off the incredible felt 3-D structures these kids made recently,

I want to show their sweet little experiments in needlefelting.

If you've never tried the technique,

you start off with soft wool roving in various colors

and you punch threw it to tangle & dry felt it with a very sharp multi-barbed needle.

It's super fun & addicting but a bit scary.

Fortunately nobody was injured this year  :)

Here are all 8 of their prelims.
