Caroline reviewed: Needle-felting course with FURZIE at The Globe, Hay on Wye, Herefordshire *Accommodation available*

"Great venue that matched the encouraging tuition, allowing twisted wire to more than resemble our chosen animals in a day, something I wasn't sure was doable when I began. Michelle's friendly relaxed approach and beautiful soft colourful wool kits provided ideal opportunity to meet like minded people to explore creativity. Superb day, not forgetting the lovely lunch and refreshments.... I'm sure I'll be doing more needlefelting. Thank you Michelle."

FURZIE reviewed: Furzie mobile needle-felting parties - sculpt with wool! Ideal for birthdays, hen parties and dinner parties

"I organised a felting workshop at my home in Derbyshire for a few friends and myself run by Michelle from Furzie. All of us we complete novices in the art and craft of needle felting. We were totally inspired by the examples of Michelle's work...true masterpieces...none of us thought or believed that we'd end up with a completed articles. Michelle guided us through many techniques from making our wire aperture to shaping it with hand felted wool and putting on the finishing touches...we were all amazed at the end of the day. We would highly recommend others to explore needle felting with Michelle. Thanks for a great day."

"I really enjoyed my first shot at 3D needle felting, Michelle is a brilliant tutor - really knowledgeable and helpful. The quality and value for money of "the kit" was impressive with plenty of extra wool available if required. I would certainly recommend that anyone interested in this form of soft craft should give it a try - excellent value for money and a beautiful venue."

"Excellent tuition with everyone getting assistance. Michelle is friendly and approachable. We all got to make what we wanted and go home with a nearly complete piece, with the necessary supplies and knowledge to finish it. I took my finished piece to work today and people have asked for Furzie details so they can book a place on a future course."

"Ideal venue for this excellent course. Plenty of parking,a great welcome and great service. Really enjoyed the drinks and lunch too. As for the course, Michelle was a very hands on tutor ensuring that everyone understood the methods. She had total control and kept everyone engaged through the whole day with plenty of encouragement and praise. We all felt very proud of our achievements and left enthused and raring to make another felted animal!"

"What a lovely way to spend the day with my Mum! It was a nice friendly group of people. The teacher was very good, she helped fixed our occasional mishaps and encouraged us all with lovely comments. The venue was excellent with lovely staff and delicious refreshments throughout the day. Neither me or Mum had ever done any felting and I was amazed at the results. Even my 14 year old daughter said WOW! She couldn't believe I had made it. She should have seen some of the others! Highly recommended. Thanks Michelle."

Barbara Saunderson reviewed: Needle Felting with FURZIE at The National Herb Centre, Banbury, Oxfordshire

"I had seen Michelle's felting at 'Art in the Park' in Leamington Spa last year and decided then that I would like to find out how to do it. I had done some wet felting before but wanted to learn more about needle felting. So when I discovered that she was holding a course at Warmington, which is not too far away from me, I took the opportunity to enrol, along with two of my friends. Michelle was an excellent teacher and explained everything well, helping us when we needed it and letting us try things for ourselves as well. All the materials that we needed were supplied and we all produced something that we were really pleased with. The venue was good, we had a very nice lunch and also tea and coffee. It was friendly and relaxed. We had a really good day and I thought it was very good value. I would certainly recommend it and will probably go on another of Michelle's course in future."

"A fabulous day with Michelle in Hay on Wye, I was amazed at how much we got done and the quality of the finished items, which is all down to her excellent tuition. We all finished our needle felt animals and went home extremely happy with our day and enthusiastic about needle felting and what we could achieve with it. An extra plus was the wonderful lunch and coffee provided at the venue. I would highly recommend Michelle as a needle felting teacher and crafter, her work is exquisite!"

Mr Brian Paterson reviewed: Needle felting course with FURZIE at Trumpet Corner Tea Rooms, Ledbury, Herefordshire

"Excellent course. Informal, instructive and enjoyable. My first delve into the realm of needle felting, but Michelle made the experience an enjoyable one with her teaching style. Other members on the course were of different levels of expertise, however this added to the mix and Michelle was able to give each person the time needed to ensure they achieved their learning goal and got maximum benefit from the course. I came away with knowledge, nice memories, a piece of my own handcrafted art, but more importantly the skills to carry it forward and hopefully help raise funds for the charity I volunteer for. Thank you Michelle."

"Another brilliant craft day, such a lovely setting at Lapstones to spend a day, with a scrummy lunch to break the concentration. Michelle is a super tutor, so relaxed, letting us enjoy ourselves while giving us tips along the way and just when we feel we have made our pieces Michelle gives them that little twist which makes them come alive giving them a character. Can't wait for another opportunity to meet up with like minded people another day."

Jennifer Burton reviewed: Needle felting course with FURZIE at Trumpet Corner Tea Rooms, Ledbury, Herefordshire

"I really enjoyed the course in Ledbury with Michelle. It was definitely worth the 2 hours drive I had to get there. As I was totally new to needle felting I felt quite nervous but that soon changed. We had a lovely group on the day and Michelle was and is a great teacher. To start of with I felt a bit unsure but bit by bit I grew in confidence and I am happy to say that I love the squirrel that I made. As soon as I got home I got onto the computer to order lots of needle felting stuff because I'm definitely not stopping now. Got so many ideas, so this was only the start of my felting journey. Thank you Michelle for a lovely and inspiring day. It's one of the best things I have done in a long time."
