3D Needle Felting Workshop: Make a Blue Tit or Robin
A creative needle felting workshop with renowed fibre artist, Vicky Pulman.
- Booking essential
Join me for a relaxed and creative 3-hour needle felting workshop at Tatton Park, Knutsford, where we’ll be creating a beautiful blue tit (or robin) in wool.
During this fully guided session, you’ll learn how to sculpt wool fibres using specialist felting needles, building shape gradually and refining detail through careful layering and colour placement. We’ll focus on capturing the distinctive markings and character of this much-loved garden bird.
Suitable for complete beginners and those with some experience, the workshop is taught step by step in a supportive, small-group setting.
By the end of the session, you’ll leave with your own finished needle felted blue tit. Note - we will be making the bird that will hang from a thread and not the tree and flowers as pictured.
