Description: 

Join Mary for 2 days of fringing and twirling your very own realistic style 4-foot "Wooly Pine" tree.

Three colors of beautiful green wool will be used to make the life like branches with sturdy wires and glue. Mary will provide the tools needed, so you just need to bring happy hands that are ready to twirl! Your 4-foot Wooly Pine tree will be made with 10 rows of branches – in ascending sizes.

Fringing and twirling wool is an art! Mary is a master, and will show you all her tips and tricks. After learning these techniques, you are well on your way to assembling the unique Wooly Pine tree onto a dowel, and then a log base. 

During the workshop, Mary will also have examples of hooked and wool appliqué mats, ornaments, mini baskets, and needle felted animals --- all great complements for your Wooly Pine Tree!

Bio: 
Mary Annunziato has created and taught her own beautiful design of the "Wooly Pine" trees since 2012, and continues to design and create realistic style wool decor to bring the beauty of nature into the home, including: lavender, willows, wreaths, flowers, pine swags, carrots and more.

Her love of hand sewing, painting, and basket making are often incorporated into her wool handiwork. Mary teaches across the country at basket, gourd, painting and quilt conventions and guilds, as well as fiber and wool shops.

Mary’s business is called Wooly Pine and her Wooly Pine pattern line is sold at Dorr Mill Store & W Cushing & Co.
