You\u2019re invited! \u00a0Join me in May 2023 at Snow Farm: The New England Craft Program <\/strong>to learn the art of needle punch. I first learned needle punch on a trip to Scotland.<\/a> Ever since, I continue to create unique pieces, many of which have been exhibited in galleries around the United States<\/a>. This year, I am so excited to have the opportunity to teach this to you at Snow Farm. And it\u2019s not just needle punch, we\u2019ll also dye our own yarn using natural dyes<\/a>. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019ve never heard of Snow Farm, it is a nonprofit residential craft school located in Williamsburg, Massachusetts. This town, in the foothills of the Berkshire Mountains, is a beautiful area rich with artists and the nearby college towns of Northampton and Amherst. (Bonus for fiber lovers: Northampton is home of Webs<\/a> and they have a physical store you can shop.)<\/p>\n\n\n

In March 2022, I completed a two-week artist residency at Snow Farm<\/a>. During this time, I had the entire fiber studio to myself with nothing but pure creative time. I enjoyed feeling completely free to just be creative in this beautiful place and explore new concepts and ideas without interruption. I was thrilled when Snow Farm invited me back to teach. <\/p>\n\n\n

Needle Punch Class Description<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Needle punching is a fun, easy technique that combines elements of rug hooking and embroidery and yields beautiful results. In this workshop, start by hand-dyeing wool with natural elements such as cochineal and madder. Then combine the dyed yarn with other colors and design an 8\u201d x 8\u201d wall hanging using both loop and cut pile. Learn about color combinations, basic composition, and how to be spontaneous with the yarn. No experience necessary. No supply fee; an instructor kit fee of $110 is payable in class and includes the frame and punch needle for students to take home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The class runs for three days, and lodging is available on the Snow Farm grounds. <\/p>\n\n\n
