Owlet Felting - 18/19 October

$180.00

Take your felting journey further with Reena, world-renowned Needle Felt Artist living in the stunning lower South West of Australia.

When Natalie challenged a few artists to find a way to use some seemingly “useless” Crossbred Wool, Reena rose to the occasion. With her years of experience in working with difficult fibres, she conjured up the most charming little Owlet – a creation guaranteed to make anyone smile. Now you can learn how to bring this charismatic character to life in your very own hands!

The Owlet is small but mighty – don’t be fooled by his size! He requires strong felting muscles, stamina, and patience, making this workshop ideal for experienced felters ready to tackle more advanced techniques.
