I taught a felting class last night. A group of really receptive and fun women sat together and needled wool into bird shapes for a good long time.
It's a cool thing to witness a group of mostly strangers sit, each working on their project, bonding through the shared experience. Chatting, laughing, learning, occasionally "ouch!"ing. We snacked on rhubarb curd in graham cracker crusts and discussed ducks in the bathtub and what peculiar creatures cats are. It was a good night.
And just look how cute their birds turned out. I love the worm in the mouth.
These are just a few of the fantastic wee birds made last night.
Thank you, ladies, for the fun night and for allowing me to share the craft with you. It was good fun.
