February 27 & 28, 2009 "Needle Felting A Gnome"

I just taught another "Needle Felting A Gnome" class. I had five very happy and creative students. This was the first class that I taught that no one stuck themselves with their felting needles- They each deserve an award. When I begin to teach I always talk about the safe use of felting needles- how they should always stick their felting needles into their foam pads in an upright position when they are not using them or are distracted by talking to someone else. This time there was no washing their wound with soap and water, no antibiotic ointment and no bandaids on their stuck fingers- Hooray. I'm so proud of each one of these students.
