Session One
We will talk about the theme and composition of your artwork. Wet felting techniques that will be used to create the background of your piece and some features will then be demonstrated. You will then have time to create the wet felted elements of your artwork in the session so that they can dry ready for session two.
Session Two
We will look at the backgrounds we made last week and discuss which elements of your design you wish to add using the needle felting technique. Needle felting techniques will then be demonstrated to allow you to add your chosen details and embellishments to your piece. You tutor will be on hand to give artistic advice as necessary and help with techniques as well.
Session Three
The session will start with a demonstration and you will produce samples of three basic embroidery stitches: stem stitch, French knots and lazy daisy stitch. You will then get a chance to choose some beads from our growing stash. You can then consider how to use the stitches and the beads to embellish your work. The rest of the session will be spent adding the chosen details to your art – and don’t worry there is no rush to get it finished as we have added another session for you to tweak and fiddle!
Session Four
This session is about tweaking and fiddling to make sure you are happy with your final piece and that it is all finished. If you have been super speedy there will be a chance to make a little something extra depending on how much time there is left.
