Needle Felt a Santa Ornament Workshop
Led by fibre artist Cathy Disbrow, participants sculpt a four-inch tall Santa figure with facial features and a beard using wool sheared from the village's flock of Border Leicester sheep. Felting wool and two needles are supplied for the project, and foam felting pads are loaned for use during the session. Workshop registration also grants general admission to explore the heritage village grounds and view the sheep in their field.
