With the Thanksgiving holiday less than a week away, Seneca Allegany Resort & Casino is gearing up to start the ensuing holiday season in spectacular fashion.
In this class, you will create a needle felted valentine themed garland using wool roving. The technique you will be using involves repeatedly poking a needle through the felt to compact the wool. You will be using heart-shaped cookie cutters to guide you in shaping the wool. You will then attach your hearts and beads onto the garland strand. The length of your finished garland will depend on how many hearts and beads you can make during the class time, and on how you choose to space them apart on the strand.
