Live Workshops | Painting With Wool: Needle Felted Woodland Toadstool with Dani Ives | Crafter

In this workshop, you’ll learn Dani’s favorite Painting with Wool (needle felting) techniques, including basic image transfer, filling in shapes, blending colors, creating shadows and highlights and mastering fine details like thin lines, sharp edges and dots as we create the magical woodland toadstool hoop. We’ll also discuss the tools and materials for best practices, how to compose your image, different ways to present and finish a piece of needle felted fiber art, and how to care for it.

Supplies You Will Need

OR

  • Felting Needles – Dani recommends having at least 2 or 3 on hand. Her favorite is size 38 Star.
  • Felting Work Surface – Dani uses dense felting foam.
  • Fabric – 100% wool felt, 1mm thick is great for beginners. Dani also uses a medium weight linen (make sure it isn’t transparent). Feel free to experiment with different fabrics. One piece, size 8″ x 10″ or similar will be plenty for this workshop.
  • Wool Fibers in various colors (Felted Sky Felter’s Palette or Living Felt Wool)
    • 1/8 oz per color is enough to explore with. Dani highly recommends using carded wool batts if possible.
  • Pen that marks easily on your fabric.
  • Optional: 4″ embroidery hoop, hot glue or fabric glue
