In this 3 day workshop you will learn an alternative approach to the increasingly popular technique of Nuno Felting or Silk/wool lamination. Textile Artist and Designer Melissa Arnold has developed an alternative approach to laminating wool fibers into a silk fabric base. She will be teaching both a “felting by hand” technique and the No-Roll Dryer method.
On Day One: we will create samples of the many different design ideas for laminating these two fibers together, using white wool with white silk.
On Day Two: we will begin the first dye process and create more samples.
On day Three: we will take a look at adding shibori to the mix. This class is designed to give the experienced Nuno felter another perspective on this exciting and fabulous art form. Beginners are welcome as well.
A materials list will be available upon registration. Examples are in the shop so stop by and check them out!
