Summer will be here soon, and with it comes fiber festivals. Attending the Michigan Fiber Festival in August is an annual event. Held in Allegan, the festival offers many wonderful classes. But a special treat was attending the 2007 Midwest Felting Symposium in Madison, WI. I took several hat making classes from the incredible Hungarian artist, Judit Pocs.
In the photos, my niece, Alexis Lessard, models a blue silk scarf embellished with blue merino wool, and a burgundy merino wool scarf embellished with silk, polyester yarn, and merino prefelts. The hats are fine merino wool and silk. The scarves were made in classes I took from Sharon Costello at the 2007 Michigan Fiber Festival, and the hats were made at the 2007 Midwest Felting Symposium in classes I took from Judit Pocs.
Just do a search for each festival to see what delightful classes they are offering this year!
