Pumpkin Faces Felting Class
“Take a stab” at needle felting and go home with an adorable pumpkin filled with personality!
Will your pumpkin be comical, spooky, cheerful, or a little mischievous? The choice is yours! Using a barbed felting needle, you’ll sculpt alpaca and wool fibers into a three-dimensional pumpkin face unlike anyone else’s.
Along the way, you’ll learn techniques for shaping and sculpting fiber, adding facial features, and creating expressions that bring your pumpkin to life. You’re welcome to bring a picture of a celebrity or an older person with distinctive facial features for inspiration!
What Is Needle Felting?
