Review of venueballard, October 28, 2009
Laurie was great and I learned a lot and had fun - also purchased her book and a kit. Have already made two more animals at home. Very lowkey class, only tow of us so we had individual attention - it was great! I loved that she let us keep our pads and needles and sent us home with some extra wool so that even if we didn't purchase a kit, we could still make another creation at home.

Review of venueballard, October 15, 2009
Had a great time in the needle felting class by Laurie Sharp. My daughter and myself took her class and loved it. We have been felting for a while and had bought Lauries book a while back. It was great to meet her and learn some of her tricks. She brought all supplies so even a beginner would understand what to do. I would take another class from her.
