Thoroughly enjoyed the felting class. Thank you for your patience Rachel. It was great to come away with a finished item. I now feel more confident to needle felt on my own. I would happily attend any future classes which may build on my present knowledge.

I was given a needle felting kit for Christmas but the instructions left a lot to be desired. I now feel confident to complete successfully. Had a great morning

Felting workshop - such a lovely fun experience - Rachel was so very helpful - left with a lovely felt brooch and now confident to felt independently. Highly recommend!
Heather Kim - 11 September 2022
My friend and I had an amazing evening. The tutor was friendly, very helpful and welcoming. We arrived to tea and biscuits on a wet evening and enjoyed ourselves learning a new craft. Instructions and support was given along with teaching points to extend and develop our chosen designs. Fantastic evening would book again.
Susanne Storer - 9 July 2022
What a lovely evening! Needle Felting was such fun, both relaxing and totally absorbing, and I came away feeling I have mastered the basics of a new skill and with something lovely to show for my efforts. Will definitely be going back for more.

Heather - 17 November 2021
A great class, which I would highly recommend. We were able to make a selection from a wide range of kits. We were taught all the techniques that we needed to succeed.
Jane Tatnell - 14 November 2021
Really enjoyed it. Didn’t know what to expect of needle felting and not creative at all but with the nurturing guidance of Rachel I ended up with a sweet little mouse. Cup of tea and a biscuit gets you off to a good start and a friendly bunch of ladies completes the morning. Would recommend.
Carol - 15 October 2021
Friendly workshop. Choosing which animal/flower you would like to produce from piece of wool and a needle was the hardest thing of the workshop. With clear and easy to follow instructions from Rachel saw the wool transform into cute animal. Thank you so much, had great time. Would definitely do another.
Theresa Holmes - 13 October 2021
A very enjoyable evening, a small class with a very positive and expert teacher. I had tried needle felting at home but just couldn't get it right, this class has inspired me to dig out the kit and try again.
Sarah Bulmer - 12 October 2021
A very friendly class and a very knowledgable teacher. I thoroughly enjoyed learning a new craft and look forward to doing many more courses. I came home with a beautiful Needle Felted Poppy which looks stunning as a broach ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Abby - 14 December 2020
Great teacher and the class was well organised. Will all the restrictions Craft My Day did an excellent job to keep us all feel safe and it was top priority. Really enjoyed learning about needle Felt Crafting and the teacher was very clear with her instructions and come round at a safe distance to help and explain where needed. Great class thank you
Frances - 6 October 2020
The workshop was great. I enjoyed making a bee. Needle Felting is very therapeutic, there is definitely something relaxing about stabbing a roll of wool to make an interesting, unique creature. I would recommend this to anyone.
Deborah - 12 February 2020
Everything you need provided to make one of a variety of needlefelted animals. There were a good variety of kits to choose from and tips and help along the way if you needed. Also good to leave with the materials to complete at home if you didn’t finish.
Katherine - 9 February 2020
I love my badger! Am planning to book another session soon - because my mum wants to learn too!
Angela - 15 September 2019
So pleased I booked in for this needle felting class. There was a calm relaxed friendly atmosphere in the small class.It’s something I’ve fancied doing for a while but not got around to it ,now I have the basic knowledge I feel confident to go ahead with other projects.In fact,I’ve already ordered some felting equipment to get me going!! I really enjoyed this first introduction to crafting and I’ll certainly be back for more Thank you Angie x
Pamela - 15 September 2019
I really enjoyed this workshop. The technique was clearly demonstrated with lots of examples and there was plenty of support and inspiration from our friendly course leader, Rachel. It was good fun and great to have a successful piece of work to take home. I would thoroughly recommend the Needle Felting Workshop and Craft My Day, Worcester Park.
