Seven red mice all in a row…

Chris and Ritsuko’s Octopus and Kitty. Can you believe this was their first time needle felting? Amazing!

There are still a few spots left in our Intro to Needle Felting class, this Thursday, September 24th from 6-8pm. The class is $25 non-member/$20 member. Below is a photo from our August session. It’s always lots of fun and highly addictive!

Meet Gizmo

Our newest friend in the studio (Gizmo on left). He’s crafty, a great listener, and is our newest addition to the big orange couch. He’s completely needle felted except for his big felt eyes and feathers. How long did it take? Weeks! Months even. But it was well worth the patient effort. Won’t you say hello?

Our newest studio member, Lisa, knit a purse and put it through an intensive cycle in our washing machine to transform it into a beautiful wet felted bag!

Devon made these needle felted hamburger earrings last week!
They almost look good enough to eat – but don’t worry, we wont…

Needle Felting June Class

We’ve had a lot of great classes wrapping up this week! Here are some photos from our Intro to Needle Felting class last weekend. It was a really fun group of girls – each person made a little mouse and got started on an additional project as well. Can you tell we love this craft?

Gigis Birthday Party

rhea — Fri, 19 Jun 2009 17:06:23 +0000

I really love hosting parties in our studio. It is a chance for a group of people to truly make this space their own and celebrate a special event or person while creating something altogether.

Gigi has participated in several classes and events at The U.C.C. Whenever she and her good friend Lola come by, we drop whatever we are doing to find out the latest on the two girls’ creative endeavors. You may be thinking that Gigi is just another 20 something learning to sew and make soap, but Gigi just celebrated her 11th birthday with us last week!

9 of Gigi’s closest friends learned our most addicting craft, needle felting.

Watch out for Gigi, you just might see her on Project Runway…2018!
