About the workshop
This half day course will enable you to explore the creative process of needle felting with the aim of completing your own needle felted landscape picture. You will learn techniques using merino wool fibres and special felting needles to build up your unique landscape, you don't need any previous experience of felting.
All materials will be provided with the option of framing your finished work at an extra cost. No previous experience of felting is necessary. Inspirational examples will be shown on the day but you are welcome to bring your own photographs to work from.
Important information
