Sandwich Home Industries Offers Two Felting Classes in August

7/24/2018

 
Sandwich Home Industries, the fine crafts gallery of Center Sandwich, NH welcomes local craftsperson, Diane Johnson, who will be teaching two felting workshops at the League of New Hampshire Craftsmen Gallery in Sandwich on August 2, 3 and 11.

The first class is for families to create a project together. Wee Felting World - Family Project will be held in two sessions August 2nd and 3rd 10:00 am – 12:00 noon. Tuition is $85 per family of 3 or 4, materials included. At least one adult must accompany children ages 3 and up. Both large and small families are welcome! In Session 1 you will be creating fields, a pond, flowers, a shelter, and paths. Session 2 teaches you how to make a tree, some rocks or bushes, an animal, and a person or two (could also be a fairy, gnome, or mermaid). Everyone works on different parts and then combines everything into one interactive project.

On August 11th, from 10 - 12, Diane will teach Simply Sandwich Souvenir - using  wool from local sheep, goats, and alpacas to create a unique Sandwich Souvenir. Whether you live here year-round, come here seasonally, or are visiting the area for the first time, this is a chance to make a truly personal souvenir of Sandwich.  You may choose to make a sheep, an angora goat, or an alpaca. The core wool will come from one of the sheep at the Sandwich Creamery (after class, you can take your project to the Creamery, eat some ice cream and visit the sheep and cows). The surface fleece will come from an animal that lives here in town. Along with that wool fleece, you will receive a picture with the name of the animal from which the fiber was shorn. Tuition is $40, materials and felting kit included. To find out more about all of our summer and fall classes, go to centersandwich.nhcrafts.org.

Those who visit Sandwich, NH, often find themselves planning to return. Some even return here to live. What makes Sandwich such a prized destination? An invigorating atmosphere, friendly people and quiet streets. Clear waters and scenic views in the White Mountains. Plenty to see and do embedded in the vibrant spirit of an historic New England town. I am grateful to be part of this exceptional community.

Grateful thanks to the Alfred Quimby Fund, the Town of Sandwich and Wedco for their support.
