A Wild Woolly Bird Workshop is a great way to gain skills and learn techniques on all things needle felting. Di Conroy has extensive knowledge and years of felting experiences from all over the world including 16 years while living in Tokyo.

With simple tools such as a wool mat and a felting needle, you and your friends will be amazed at the 2D wool paintings and 3D sculptures you can create.
Class supplies include: Aussie core wool, NZ Maori and Corriedale wools, wire and pipe cleaners. Birds are 15cm in size.
Tool supplied: Wool mat, felting needles, pliers and scissors.
