About this Event
Transform a cloud of loose wool into a pocket-sized companion! Join fibre artist Cathy Disbrow to explore the art of needle felting by sculpting a 3″ snowy owlet. You will learn to stab to shape the wool into a sturdy body shape before adding personality with those signature speckled markings and a pair of stern yellow eyes.
In a unique farm-to-art experience, you’ll work with wool sheared right from the Village’s own flock of Border Leicester sheep. It's a cozy afternoon of crafting that is perfect for beginners and definitely Hedwig approved.
Make a full day of the experience! Your ticket includes FREE Village admission, which opens at 11:00 a.m. for those who wish to bring a picnic lunch and explore the grounds. Best of all, you can visit the sheep in their field before or after the workshop.
Cost: $70.00
Materials are included in the price. This includes 2 felting needles and wool. Foam felting pads are provided for students to use during the workshop and can be purchased separately.
If you have any questions, please email instructor Cathy at [email protected].
