Come enjoy a morning of artisan needle felting and make this iconic stand-alone Robin while you soak up the cosy creative space of The Oast Studio, set within rural beauty of The Ashdown Forest. This Robin Redbreast workshop is taught by master needle Felter Cecily Kate who guides you every step of the way in creating your very own needle felted Robin that's ready to bring joy and a magical touch of handcrafted inspiration throughout Christmas and Winter months ahead. At the Oast Studio, we choose natural materials such as 100% wool fibres and felting pads in order to minimise our impact of the earth and reduce landfill. As an artisan crafter Cecily Kate shares her tips and tricks so you can create beautiful wool sculptures without using polystyrene core shapes, foam pads, plastic eyes, plastic clay or synthetic fibres. Suitable for all skill levels, even if you are a beginner. During this workshop you will learn… ​​ *How to wrap and shape a core wool form *How to blend wool colours, create layers and subtle feather effects with your wool and needles *How to make a beak *How to create a twinkly eye using only wool *How to wrap legs This workshop allows for 6-8 people.
