2-hour workshop – cost £36.00
In this workshop you will needle felt a 2D squirrel with his bushy tail as he rushes to catch the golden falling leaves.
The first stage is building up and sculpting the main shape with core wool and then you will add colour to the squirrel as well as ears, texture and character!
The falling golden leaves are added next and as many toadstools as you wish, using carefully selected different types of wool and fibres.
Liberty will show you when to use different gauge needles and how to achieve a fine finish to your felting. You will have the eco felting mat, needles and spare wool to take home.
Advisory Note:
Suitable for beginners and beyond, over the age of 15 years
