I teach in-person needle felting classes and workshops for adults and teens 13+ in the GTHA area of Southern Ontario and also teach needle felting workshops online. Take a beginner’s course to learn felting basics or take your needle felting to the next level and learn some intermediate techniques. In-person needle felting workshops are held in different locations across the GTHA including Burlington, Hamilton, Oakville, Mississauga, Toronto, and sometimes you’ll find me in one of the surrounding towns like Guelph, Brantford, and Waterloo.
