Needle felting classes
Hello,
I am gauging interest to see if anyone local would like to learn needle felting. I am an experienced fiber artist with my work sold internationally and have taught people from 12 to 60+ years old.
This is a beginner class and you will learn basic needle felting techniques and create a ball to decorate as you wish. The photos are an example I made for a previous class.
Beginners lesson is a 4-5 hour session dependent on pace of the group. $65 per person - includes all materials you will need to create the project and light refreshments.
Class size will be limited to 6 spaces.
Class date TBD based on interest but will be held on either a Saturday or Sunday.
Message me for more details or to enrol.
