Punch Needling - It's a type of rug hooking! Produce your own beautiful textile designs with a delicate rug pile surface with the help of a streamlined tool called a punch needle. This method of creating is fun and easy. You can make your own fabrics for rugs, pillows, wall art, bags and baskets, slippers, wallets, cozies and stuffies of all kinds. In this class we will go through punch needle basics. You will learn all about the equipment and materials involved in this craft. Find out how to set up and finish a project. Get inspired by textural possibilities and get acquainted with your new favourite tool and all it can do.

Materials: The class fee includes all the materials necessary for this class and your first Punch Needle Project including a sturdy, no-slip Hooking Frame, Monks Cloth, Yarn in a variety of colours to pick from for your design, and of course a Punch Needle Tool from Amy Oxford.
