Needle Felting Art

Tutor: Sue Pearl, Textile teacher and feltmaker

Sue will guide you through the process of creating your own pieces of art from wool using images from your favourite photos, postcards or paintings. By the end of the session you will be able to make wall hangings, greeting cards and even a motif that you can turn into a brooch.
