GREAT CLASS IDEA: 

Your customers can turn a child's artwork into a plush SOFTIE! 


                                  

                          
I haven't been able to spend much time in the studio this week, but I have been living vicariously through some felting friends!  I love, love, love the awesome piece that Gigi created---it is based on her son's artwork!



She started with a pre-school art project and then added some wool and elbow grease to create its textile twin!


 
This is a quick and easy project that uses needle felting and wet felting to create the fabric.   The piece is quickly assembled using a blanket stitch.







  First, create the fabric.                                                        Next, cut and pre-assemble



                Finally, stuff and stitch!  Turn a treasured memory into a treasured doll!

Stay Tuned!  The complete tutorial is coming next week!
