Fox Pond is the first in a brand new multi-media, four-part series of courses with Oxford Instructor Laura Berlage! In each course participants will work on a punched panel featuring a scenic body of water with a needle felted focal point. For the Fox Pond Course this focal point is a fox with a butterfly!
The other courses (sold separately or as a bundle) feature a pair of loons, a deer, and in the final course, a canoe, each portrayed in various beautiful punched wilderness water scenes.
Learn how to create depth, perspective, shading, and dimensionality with punch needle rug hooking. PLUS learn Laura's method of creating and adding needle felting elements to punch needle pieces which make landscapes come alive on your frame!
Choose just the monk’s cloth, pattern, and felting supplies (including glass beads for the eyes) and use your own yarns, or snag the yarn pallet Laura will be using, which features100% wool yarn from her farm’s sheep. This is for experienced punchers in using fine Oxford Punch Needles, and while previous needle felting experience is helpful, Laura will live demo the whole process to help you jump in.
Dimensions of the finished piece are 17x15 inches. Sign up for this single course, or sign up for the course bundle to save your spot in all four courses, and collect the whole Water series!
