Our beloved artist Crafty Claudes is coming back! Meet her beautiful handmade owls at July Creative Lane!

Creative Lane feature artist – Skoshlets

Skoshlets, a little store of needle and wet felted treasures.

Liesl, the creative mind behind Skoshlets, enjoys every moment making felt toys. It may sounds odd, but she is very passion about felt toys making, and her aim is to create little bits of delightful adorableness or beauty that, in some strange and small way, nourish people’s sense of well being. Lisel is kindly enough to offer either a demonstration of or tutorial on how to make a needle felted owl or elephant – including a range of basic needle felting techniques. If you want to learn how to make felt toys you must not miss Skoshlets stall!

Claudia at Crafty Claudes makes all her softies (and dolls) by the patterns she drew herself. The materials are all upcycled from suits, jackets, tshirts, table cloths and other 2nd hand fabrics as well as felt and cotton thread. A combination of hand and machine sewing is used to create them. That’s why you can see this unique look of each softy.

Claudia will be showing you how to make your own collage picture card. Using scraps of pre-cut fabric and paper, kids can create a unique handmade card base on their drawings and other inspirations!
