Always dreamed of owning a fabergé egg, those sumptuous little gems stone eggs made in Russia, before the revolution? Now you can, with our fun workshop where you will use the skills of crochet and needle-felting to create a real ‘gem’.
Viv will guide you through the part of needle felting and Sylvia will help you create your crochet embellishments. Needle felting is an easy technique using wool and a needle to lock the wool together. You will use your crochet knowledge to create small appliques, like flowers and leaves to decorate your egg. Finally, adding a little bit of glamour to Easter you can include glitter beads into the make to give it that real fabergé feel. How fab is that!
