Mary reviewed: Needle felt workshop

"I had a wonderful afternoon with Yvonne learning how to needlefelt. Between us we made a frog which I requested to make. Yvonne is very patient and skilled. She was generous with her time and allowed me to finish my frog…..I was rather slow! I thoroughly enjoyed myself. Thanks Yvonne. "

Needle Felt Art responded:

"Thank you Mary, you did so well, it was quite a project. I had such fun too, the first frog I have felted, am keen to try some more unusual creatures, you have inspired me. Kind regards Yvonne."

"My friend Claire and I had so much fun with Yvonne felting. We did a badger and it was all so therapeutic and relaxed. I went away feeling pleased I had learnt a new craft which I now feel confident to continue in the future. So thank you Yvonne, hope you enjoyed our company too 😆. "

Needle Felt Art responded:

"Adriana, I am so pleased you and Claire had a fun and therapeutic workshop. It is great to hear that you have the confidence to continue on your needle felting journey. You both worked so diligently and had amazing results, it was a pleasure to share this craft with you both. I had a great time too, lovely to relax and felt with good conversation. Happy future felting ladies. "

Sam O-G reviewed: Needle felt workshop

"My three children (aged 11 and 10) did a three hour workshop. Yvonne hosted brilliantly. She gave us options on what to make, and allowed us to do a bespoke session aligned to our love of pugs! We each came away with a unique pug bauble, having had a great time choosing our colours and accessories. She even supplied very yummy snacks. I would highly recommend this course for complete beginners to experienced crafters. "

Needle Felt Art responded:

"Sam thank you so much for such a glowing review, it was such a joy to felt with you and your children. The results were amazing, everyone was so well focused, a pleasure to work with. "

Michelle reviewed: Needle felt workshop

Jacinta reviewed: Needle felt workshop

"I had a lovely morning learning needle felting with Yvonne. She is a really good teacher; she explained each stage of the process really well, was very encouraging and didn't rush us to finish. She was happy for the course to run over the expected finish time, so that we all completed our squirrels and were happy with what we made. I am now inspired to dig out the half finished needle-felting kit I gave up on some time ago. Doing a course with a good teacher really helps you learn a skill and you have someone to help you if you are unsure of how to do something. Thank you Yvonne and CraftCourses"

Needle Felt Art responded:

"Thank you so much Jacinta for such a thorough and positive review. I am so pleased you are now confident to felt your Gloucestershire Old Spot. It was fun felting with you, hope to see you again, Yvonne. "

"Brilliant present for family member and I booked myself on too. Very accommodating and Yvonne gives you free reign to just have a go and be creative, even if you are a bit ambitious! ? I wasn't able to finish mine but she gave me the info and last bits of wool I would need to do so at home and I think I have found a new hobby. Couldn't recommend enough."

Needle Felt Art responded:

"Thank you Scarlett, you both worked so hard , with great results. Don't hesitate to get in touch if you need any help finishing off your giraffe. It was a really fun afternoon, be delighted to felt with you again."

Carol Smart reviewed: Needle felt workshop

"I highly recommend Yvonne's needle felting classes. She is very accommodating on what we wish to make. She supplies a huge variety of wool of all colours and is very generous with this. It is great fun and really good to achieve something made simply from wool and a needle. I have been going to Yvonne's classes for around 2 years now. Do just sign up and come along to any of her courses! She is very genuine and authentic in what she does."

Needle Felt Art responded:

"Thank you so much for your positive feedback Carol. It was great to start up again after lockdown on such a high,with so many inspiring pieces felted, so encouraging and uplifting. Yvonne."

Tamsyn reviewed: Needle felt workshop

"A lovely morning learning how to create a picture using needle felting. I had recently been diagnosed with CFS and was looking for something creative to do that would help settle the mind. I found the needle felting did this and was able to complete the morning without feeling more fatigued. The setting was lovely Yvonne had spaced the room out perfectly. All in all a lovely morning."

Needle Felt Art responded:

"I am so pleased Tamsyn that you found the felting so calming and therapeutic. You certainly managed to get in the zone and create a beautiful picture."
