Scarf Class

What a great group we had for our nuno-felting class this past Saturday! We had so much fun creating one-of-a-kind scarves, and I am happy to say, everyone's work was a huge success! Truly this was a group of diverse individuals and each lady special in her own way, everyone was so generous to share their goodies and still each scarf turned out so different and beautiful. We took a break halfway through the rockin' and rollin' process to eat lunch, and treated ourselves to a great buffet salad bar at the Whole Foods shop just up the street. As a small-town resident, this was so special for me...most restaurants in our little town serve up bbq, chicken or fast-food, and I really miss getting to try new things. But we filled trough-sized bowls with the yummiest fresh fruits and veggies and assorted munchies, had some rich coffee and stimulating conversation, and returned to class all revved up to finish our scarves. Just when the girls thought they could roll no more, their works of art came together and did just as they were supposed to, as always like magic. I love the element of surprise that comes with wet-felting! I'm posting some photos of some of the scarves, they're still wet here, I can imagine how gorgeous they were once they dried! And the girls left with a special new accessory to wear for their holiday weekend.

Also a huge thank-you to Julie and friends at Thimble Pleasures in Chapel Hill, NC for hosting the scarf class. I had the pleasure of shopping a bit there after the class, what gorgeous fabrics! What great books! Needless to say I did not leave empty-handed.
