Robins - adult beginners needle felting workshop

X

Description

An adult workshop aimed at beginners or first time felters with tutor Natalie Harris(Brooks). Natalie is a fine artist using needle felting and the creator of Roly Poly Ponies. In the morning (10.30-12:00) the basics of what type of wool and needles are best for sculpting will be explained and then you will use some basic techniques to make the base sculpt of your robin. We will break for lunch and an opportunity to get some fresh air in the grounds at 12.00. We will then return at 13:00 to finish our robins and add the finer details such as the wings, face and a festive hat if you would like to. Note that as Moseley Old Hall is a historical venue, some floors may be unlevel and you may have to negotiate some stairs. Booking is essential, £25 per person. Full workshop terms and conditions are available upon request.
