Handmade Felt Purse

Make a piece of felt and from that create your purse. Using sheep's wool to make the felt and other wool to add colour and design. Then sew up your purse.

Learn to make a colourful piece of felt and use it to create this little purse to keep your money or your treasures in.

We will be using Merino sheep's wool to make the felt and will be adding lots more colour on top of the felt as decoration. You will then need to sew this felt into your purse.

No previous experience is required, and all materials are included in the class cost.  All children in the class must be at least 8 years old.  Bookings are essential as classes are usually limited to 10 participants.  Caregivers are welcome to stay at no cost.

Please bring your lunch and a drink.
