Needle Felt a landscape workshop – 3 to 4 hours

Felt art- needle felting workshop by felt artist Janine JacquesThis is a beginners workshop to introduce you to needle felting. You will learn how to needle felt a simple landscape onto a piece of material.

You can work sat down for the duration of this workshop. It’s a very relaxing craft. See the notes on needle felting* for more info.

*needle felting

Needle felting is not sewing. Needle felting uses a special barbed needle and you stab small pieces of wool fibres into the wet felted landscape. It is easy to do and also very therapeutic (as long as you miss your fingers!).

WAIVER

By booking a workshop that involves needle felting as part of the workshop, you understand felting needles are used to stab the wool into the material.

You understand there is a risk to stabbing your fingers with the needles. You are booking the workshop understanding and accept personal responsibility for any injury.
