Needle Felt a 3D Hummingbird

In this class we will use a simple armature (1 wire) to help shape the hummingbird. Some felting experience is prefered. After you shape the body , we will work on making wings on your felting pad, then attach them to the body. I will bring beads to sew on for the eyes and a beak made of sculpy clay. When you leave you will have a complete hummingbird. Prior students have embellished their bird, at home with sequins, beads or embroidery to give it a jazzy look! Either way you will have your own one-of-a-kind hummingbird to brighten up a corner of your home.
