Helena and Sarah will share their experience and enthusiasm for creative visible mending using needle felting.
During the workshop you will learn how to use needle felting to mend holes (big and small) in wool items. Our emphasis will be on visible mends and using the opportunity for creativity. Using colour, shapes and embroidery embellishments we will work with you to achieve results that will make you want to wear those once loved items again.
No prior experience needed but a creative spirit welcome.
