Wool Beads Class at Sawtooth

We had a grand time in our Wool Beads class at Sawtooth last Saturday! I was so honored to have a family spending part of their special weekend in our class, they made some beautiful jewelry too. Also enjoyed Cat as always, she is such a joy and blessing in my class and life. And a new student Jane, a spinner like Cat and Suzanne...who knew? I'm looking forward to sharing techniques on silk scarf dyeing, nuno-felting, and yes fiber dyeing in 2016!The group made some gorgeous pieces, here are a few photos of some of their work.

Cat made these beautiful earrings, I love the variety of colors and sizes she used, and some of them match her scarf she made in our last nuno-felting class!

 3 generations wearing their gorgeous pieces, they really did an incredible job and had fun too!

 I love the combination of fibers with the glass beads that Jane chose, so unique!

 Berkeley did an amazing job felting her beads and was such a fast learner, and a natural model too!

Wet-felting their wool fibers into wool beads, hard to believe they start out the size of golf balls!
