Select a date from the drop-down menu.


Learn to create simple sea pebbles from humble wool!
Using wool, you will learn and practice needle felting techniques, feeling the cloud of fibers taking body and turning into a beautiful object. Each student will make an assortment of sea pebbles, in different tones, shapes and sizes. They make a lovely decoration, lucky stones, or tokens of friendship!
In this class you will learn about wool, how to use different size needles, and felting safety (guards will be supplied for use), as we embark in the meditative process of felting, rounding edges, smoothing angles, and adding delicate veins to make your own personal trompe-l’oeil stones.

No experience necessary. Ages 12+ welcome.

Materials fee of $5 (cash only) to be paid to the instructor at the start of the class.

ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR:

I am a French and American textile artist working mostly with wool and yarn. I started needle felting about 10 years ago, creating dimensional landscapes that talk about our place in nature and our connections to each other. I love needle felting wool so much for the freedom it offers as a medium and for its fast learning curve. There is also a depth in the colors that is really mesmerizing.
It is my pleasure to introduce people to this different way of creating art, in classes here at the fantastic San Diego Craft Collective that show techniques and tools so you can leave with something you’re happy to have made!
My work has been shown in local galleries here in San Diego and in Saint Malo, France. It can also be found for sale at the San Diego Museum of Art’s beautiful gift store, at the lovely French Delights coffee shop in Encinitas and occasionally in various art fairs. – Sophie Ancel
