Needle Felt a Puffin
Class Description: Needle Felt an Adorable Puffin is part of our Bird Series
The bird subject for this class will be the cute and colorful Puffin. The class is suitable for beginners as well as students with some experience. We will be creating this charming bird using newly learned needle-felting skills or perhaps adding to the skills you already have! Since he has some colorful markings on his face, we will be honing our detail skills to add the colors in proportion to the size of his face. Come and relax, learn, create and have fun … what could be better!
