Felted Fun: Hip Accessories from Recycled Sweaters
Saturday, Oct. 4, 2008
12 noon - 3 p.m.
Reitz Union 276 and 277

Learn how to take boring wool sweaters and turn them into one-of-a-kind accessories by using a few basic sewing skills and a technique commonly known as felting. We'll make one small project in class and you'll get pointers and inspiration for making other projects at home (purses, journal covers, iPod cozies, and others). Basic hand-sewing skills are helpful but not necessary. Materials and supplies will be provided by the instructor, in exchange for a $10 lab fee paid in cash at the beginning of class.
