Wisconsin Makers Announces Felting Workshops


Two felting workshops will take place next month in Whitewater. They are set for 5 to 8 p.m. on Jan. 12 and 26 at Wisconsin Makers, 200 E. Clay St. Attendees — beginners to advanced felters — may work on needle or wet felting or both. They may attend one or both sessions. The fee for each class is $20, materials included, with payment that night. Register by calling instructor Leani Schoor at (608) 421- 4078 or emailing her at

Having earned her bachelor of science degree in art education and master’s degree in curriculum and instruction from the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater, Schoor taught art at Jefferson High School for 38 years. The owner of Studio 2154 in Madison, she teaches wet and needle felting, beadwork, glass fusing, cement yard art, ceramics, copper enameling, metal work and quilting.
