Course Overview

Those of us in the rocky, Northern climes know that the world is a cold hard place. Luckily there’s a felted solution: the wool seat cozy. Add a beautiful and warm wooly cushion to your favorite chair, car seat, canoe, sporting event, dinner table or take it with you and sit in snug serenity under your favorite tree.  Using old wool blankets, wool roving, needle felting, and wet felting techniques you will create an attractive and comfortable cushion you can carry with you and add a layer when you need it most. Family members may choose to register as a pair and work on one project together, or may each make their own cozy (additional materials fee will be collected in class).  Ages 12+ may attend without an adult.
