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
This event takes place in the Old Potting Shed, a step-free, accessible venue in the Chatsworth Gardens. Needle felting requires manual dexterity. If you have any questions about accessibility or require an essential carer ticket, please email [email protected]
Your tickets include access to the Chatsworth Garden after the workshop to explore at your own pace. Tea, coffee and refreshments will be provided throughout the session.
