Nice Threads is of the fiber, for the fiber and by the fiber and fiber people and fiber artists. Part of our mission is to create easy access to the best in supplies and tools for fiber arts.
We've only been open a week, and so far our selection is small, but we can tell you where our supplies come from, how to use them and how they will perform, because we use what we sell.
At left are some of our felting wool and needle kits. Different breeds of sheep, felt and pattern differently, and experience is the best teacher. When you purchase supplies from Nice Threads we will educate you to buy the fiber best suited to your creation.
I invite you to join us for
Beginning Needle felting - Paint and Sculpt with Wool

Through the magic of wool and the felting needle we will learn to create 2 and 3 dimensional projects for fun, fashion and function.

The Schacht Flip Rigid Heddle looms are here and they are a joy to weave on.

Using beautiful fibers and a simple loom you will learn to warp and weave a fashion scarf in one session. We'll begin by creating a simple woven journal to record our experiences.

March 2, 16 (3 hr class, offered Wednesday afternoons)
1pm - 3pm
$40 class fee, Materials fee $10.
Your first scarf will let beautiful yarns do a lot of the work as you build your weaving skills. Because we sell yarn by the pound it is very economical. You can buy what you need, and soon you will be dying your yarns and creating the colors you want!
Please stop by with any questions and just to hang out and talk fiber. The coffee pot is on!
