Join Irish Fibre Crafters Sandra King and Sandra Marschall in a 2-hour Needle Felting Workshop to create your own 3D felted piece to take home.  All material provided, not suitable for children due to sharp needles

Needle felting is a creative craft that only requires a needle, some wool, and imagination. All you need to bring is yourself.

Come have some festive fun and discover how very satisfying it is to change a ball of fibre into your own creation

Sandra Marschall

Hello, my name is Sandra Marschall. I am originally from Germany but living almost 20 years in Ireland.

I always liked to create something with my hands and love nature.

I started my journey with wool in 2019 when I learned how to spin and felt and I absolutely got hooked on doing these crafts. I felt pretty but practical items, such as baskets, vessels, seat cushions and many more. I also give workshops and really enjoy it

Sandra King

I had always loved textiles and was an enthusiastic knitter and crocheter. Then I learned to spin my own yarns, which led to keeping sheep. Most of my products are made from their fleeces. When I do need more, I am careful to source it from farms as locally as possible.

I use lots of botanicals and natural materials for dyeing, which I find in my garden and in the hedgerows nearby. I get inspiration for my yarns and knitted garments from colourful flowers in my garden and textures of the Burren landscape, all of which I can see from my cottage and studio.
