She has a BFA from Boston University School for the Arts in painting, and has spent many years as a fine artist, illustrator, and teacher. She also holds a MEd from Antioch University in Early Childhood with a Waldorf certificate. It was during this teacher training that she was first exposed to the art of felt making and has been making felt for over 20 years. She teaches felt making classes and workshops in the greater Boston area.
Join felt artist and teacher Elizabeth Stubbs for a day of felting in the Loft. Students will start the day by wet-felting the forms needed to construct the basic house structure. Then students will needle-felt smaller forms and embellishments which will be attached to create a magnificent house for a mouse! This beautiful piece of art can adorn your home or seasonal display. Hand-sewing skills are a plus, but not required. Students should wear clothing that they don’t mind getting a little wet. All materials will be supplied. There will be a materials fee ($35 payable to the instructor directly) for a kit that will include all the materials you need for class! This is a day long workshop (10am-3pm) so please bring lunch for the half hour break! Mice not included please register here for the mouse if you would like one for this adorable habitat!
