Create a cute fly agaric mushroom from wool at this needle felting workshop in Emsworth.



2.5 hours

Class size 1 to 5 (public classes), 1 to 10
  £35

Join this cosy, peaceful needle felting workshop in Emsworth and turn soft, unspun wool into a charming Fly Agaric toadstool, nestled in a sweet vintage teacup to take home. It's made for complete beginners, so no experience is needed.
Needle felting is a wonderfully therapeutic craft. Barbed needles shape and bind wool fibres together, and there's something soothing about watching a little toadstool take form, one poke at a time. Over the 2.5-hour session, you'll learn:
  • The basics of working with natural wool fibres
  • How to handle felting needles and foam pads safely
  • Shaping and sculpting techniques to build 3D stems and caps
  • Adding fine details like spots and securing your piece into the teacup
You'll leave with your finished Fly Agaric in its teacup display, plus the confidence and skills to keep felting at home. It's perfect for nature and woodland lovers, anyone looking for a new hobby or a little "me time", and experienced felters too. Just bring yourself, and your reading glasses if you normally wear them for close-up craft work.
Please note: outside food and drink aren't permitted on the premises, but the on-site restaurant serves food, coffee, tea and drinks to buy before or during the workshop.

FAQ

Is this suitable for left-handed crafters?
Yes, absolutely! Needle felting relies on individual comfort and hand-eye coordination rather than rigid left/right techniques. Full personal guidance is provided throughout.
Is there a minimum age for attendees?
Due to the use of sharp felting needles, this workshop is designed for adults (ages 18 and over).
What should I wear?
Wear comfortable, casual clothing. Wool fibers can occasionally stick to certain dark or synthetic fabrics like fleece, so smooth textures or cotton tops are ideal.

Can I buy extra supplies on the day to keep felting at home?
Yes! Optional starter kits, extra wool, and needles will be available for purchase at the end of the session if you'd like to continue your new hobby.

female Women-owned

Hi, I’m Kim!
I’m a fibre artist and maker based in West Sussex, and the founder of Felt With Gratitude.
My passion is helping people slow down, unwind, and discover the wonderfully tactile world of needle felting. There’s something deeply satisfying about taking soft wool fibres and transforming them—needle stroke by needle stroke—into beautiful, sculpted creations.
In my workshops, the emphasis is entirely on mindful, enjoyable crafting. Whether you’re a complete beginner who has never touched a felting needle before or someone looking to carve out a few peaceful hours for yourself, my sessions are designed to be warm, encouraging, and completely pressure-free.
I provide all the high-quality materials, tools, and step-by-step guidance you need, so you can just arrive, relax, and leave with a finished piece you’re truly proud of!
