Needle Felted Corals Workshop

Dive into the strange and beautiful world of marine life, exploring the organic forms and textures of coral reefs. From delicate branching corals to bulbous brain corals and intricate sea anemones, you’ll create your own vibrant undersea-inspired sculptures using needle felting techniques. You’ll learn how to sculpt three-dimensional forms in wool, build around a wire armature, and add rich surface detail and texture to bring your corals to life.

Felting is the oldest textile construction method in human history, used for millennia in building, clothing, homeware, and sculpture across cultures. In this workshop, we’ll explore its potential for creating dynamic, three-dimensional marine-inspired forms. We’ll begin with simple shapes and gradually develop more elaborate structures and embellishments to complete your one-of-a-kind felted coral piece.
