Heartfelt Pins: Wool, Beads, & Stitches - 8am to 12pm - AAMC 2025
Come join us for a fun and colorful piece of art made using wet-felted wool, hand-stitching and glass beads for accents. Use it as a pin for jackets or tote bags or as an ornament.
In this course you will:
Cut out wet-felted wool for a background and key shapes such as a heart, moon or sun.
Stitch a pin backing or ribbon loop onto stiff felt.
Stitch on felted designs.
Add stitches for color and accents, as well as a few beads.
Stitch the two pieces of stiff felt together.
