Needle felt workshop at GalGael on Thu., 26. Nov. 4-5.30pm



In this needle felt workshop you’ll learn to create seasonal decoration or seasonal ornaments.  We will use colourful fluffy wool fibres and a barbed felt needle to work the fibres together into a solid shape. Then fine details can be added to make life-like re-creations of creatures or sculpted shapes e.g. a couple of tree hangers, a snowman, a fairy, a gnome, a Santa or a robin..... Or bring your own ideas.
The aim of this workshop is:
● to learn needle felting, or improve your needle felt skills,
● to experiment with colours and design,
● and to take home a unique piece of handmade felt.

At the end of the workshop you will have your own felted item and have learned or improved a new and traditional skill. No previous experience needed.
Cost: £5 including material. Please, feel free to invite friends!       

Workshop facilitator: Laryna E. Wuppermann, Fiber craft instructor
Please book asap, as places are limited!
Venue: 15 Fairley Street, Glasgow, G51 2SN
GalGael office: 0141/427 30 70, or let Helen know when you’re in Galgael
