Learn the basics of wet felting while creating a beautiful three-dimensional felted heart using a foam resist. This beginner-friendly workshop is new to 2026 and guides you step-by-step through the wet felting process.
In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn the fundamentals of wet felting while creating a beautiful three-dimensional felted heart using a foam resist. I’ll guide you step-by-step through the wet felting process, teaching you how to felt around foam and achieve a strong, seamless finish.
Working with soft merino wool and soapy water, you’ll learn a technique that forms the foundation for many sculptural felted pieces. By focusing on a heart shape, you’ll be able to fully understand the process and build confidence before experimenting with other forms in the future.
