Needle Felting Classes with Alyson Merrall
Fun Needle Felting classes for beginners and all levels
'Fantastic work, love the colours and working with felt' - Pat, Class attendee
Alyson's new 3-hour workshops are a fun way to explore your creativity - and you'll make some lovely Needle Felted creations to take home.
Needle Felting involves sculpting 3-dimensional pieces in unspun felt using special needles that plump up the felt - the techniques are simple to learn, and Alyson's classes at Vitreus Art will equip you to make more pieces at home if you get the bug!
Alyson even includes a kit with needles and felt and instructions in the class!
Each workshop is 3 hours - enough time to learn the essential techniques and create either a number of sweet gnomes (called Tomtes), two or three Toadstools or a sleepy fox complete with wooden display base. You can choose which projects to make on the day.
For October, join Alyson's Pumpkin patch class and make several fun Halloween Pumpkins!
And for Christmas, Alyson will teach you to make one of a number of adorable seasonal pprojects - a friendly winter Robin, a Santa or a Penguin. Christmas sessions are held in the evenings.
