Here's what people are saying about Linda's felt clothing classes...

 
?Linda has a broad knowledge of her subject matter and teaches with such enthusiasm and confidence that it encourages and inspires learning.  After completing a course with her, students look forward to practicing the skills they have learned.  She?s also a willing resource for any questions that may arise.?
-Lori Miller, Westminster, Vermont

?While searching the internet for some non-traditional wool fabric, I came across a hand felted wool site that was so intriguing I felt compelled to learn more about it. Within a few minutes of talking to Linda about the wool felting process, I decided that she had to come to Wyoming to teach a class. Twenty eager participants signed up for the class and Linda went to work organizing and shipping all of the necessary supplies. She was a very enthusiastic and inspirational instructor that brought out the creativity in all of us. It?s been over two years since she taught that class, yet more than half of us still get together on a regular basis to make those one-of-a-kind master pieces that will never go out of style. Thanks Linda!?
-Jeanette Buelt, Casper, Wyoming

 ?Most wonderful fun relaxed class I?ve attended.  I have never felted and had no idea what I was getting myself into.  Linda has a very comfortable teaching style.  I enjoyed the personal touches and ideas you gave us??  I can?t wait to do another piece of felted wool fabric.  Thanks for teaching us how to sew it together.?
-Wyoming Class, November, 2003

?I liked your approachableness and openness.  You had a firm grasp of the subject of felting and were able to convey your confidence.  Your instructions were clear and timely.  Written materials were good as well.  Samples were awesome.  Loved that you did unique things on edges to accentuate each garments designer quality.? -Wyoming Class, November, 2003
