Participants will work on a punched panel featuring a scenic body of water, with a needle felted focal point, For this project it's a canoe camping scene in the Spring. Although this is the final project in the series of courses (which are fun to collect) each course works as a stand alone, and participants may take just one, or take them all! Learn how to create depth, perspective, shading, and dimensionality with punch needle rug hooking. PLUS learn Laura's method of creating and adding needle felting elements to punch needle pieces which make landscapes come alive on your frame! Choose just the monk’s cloth, pattern, and felting supplies (including glass beads for the eyes) and use your own yarns, or snag the yarn pallet Laura will be using, which features100% wool yarn from her farm’s sheep. This is for experienced punchers in using fine Oxford Punch Needles, and while previous needle felting experience is helpful, Laura will live demo the whole process to help you jump in. Dimensions of the finished piece are 17x15 inches. Not able to attend every session? We've got you covered!
