Join us for Felt & Fizz, a fun summer evening workshop where you'll create your own needle felt cake pincushion in our cosy first-floor studio at Mill Lane Felting, within the Ferrers Centre for Arts & Crafts on the beautiful Staunton Harold Estate in Ashby-de-la-Zouch. Whether you're coming with friends or treating yourself to an evening trying something new, this is all about creativity, good company, and a glass of fizz to toast the moment.
You'll have step-by-step tuition and demonstrations throughout, with all the felting materials and equipment provided – no previous experience needed. This is a hands-on, low-pressure evening where beginners and creative minds alike feel equally at home. You'll arrive to a welcome glass of fizz, spend the evening working with your hands whilst chatting and laughing in a friendly atmosphere, and by the end you'll have created something truly one-of-a-kind: your very own handmade cake pincushion.
There's something special about making something beautiful with your own hands on a summer evening – it's the kind of experience that stays with you. You'll leave with your finished pincushion, a feel-good memory, and that lovely sense of having treated yourself to something a bit different.
Please note: tickets are non-refundable and non-transferable. Workshops may be rescheduled if minimum booking numbers aren't reached. Your ticket includes step-by-step tuition, all felting materials and equipment, a glass of fizz on arrival, and your finished handmade cake pincushion to take home.
