Felted Vases Featuring Eco-Print Design
Event Navigation
Learn how to felt and eco-print a vase or vessel in a fun two-day workshop! The classes will marry two wonderful techniques to create a work of art — wet felting with wool roving and eco-printing with botanicals.
In the class, you will learn how to draft roving and wet felt and full into a shaped vessel. The finished shape will be dyed in a “Dirty Pot” with botanical resists. The dyed felt will be reshaped into the vessel and is an original piece of art.
There will be several patterns to choose from and all participants will have the opportunity to create a second piece.

About the Instructors
Louisa Hunter and Jeanne Kaiser: Jeannie and Louisa, each with their own background in textiles and fiber arts, met at a workshop in 2019 forming a fast friendship. Currently they share a studio and focus on botanical printing, testing and trying out different techniques. In their practice they use all natural fibers along with natural dyes, tannins and plants. With Jeannie’s love of plants and gardening and Louisa’s infinite curiosity, the possibilities are endless and experimentation is at the heart of their work.
