A Little Pumpkin Patch
Lighted Needle Felted Fall Centerpiece
Thursday, September 17, 2026 at 6PM
Create a charming needle felted pumpkin patch centerpiece that will bring a little warmth to your home all autumn long.
In this workshop, you’ll use soft wool to needle felt a few pumpkins and arrange them on a natural 7 inch diameter wood slice to create your own miniature pumpkin patch.
We’ll use beautiful hues of green and brown wool to create the garden, leaves, and winding vines, then finish the scene with acorns, a charming wooden sign, stepping stones, a tiny picket fence, and warm fairy lights. The result is a cozy centerpiece that looks just as beautiful during the day as it does glowing in the evening.
We’ll guide you step by step as you sculpt wool into pumpkins and build your own unique autumn scene. All materials are included, and you’ll leave with a handmade decoration you’ll look forward to displaying year after year.
Cost: $45

Most participants choose to follow along with one of several inspirational designs provided in class, such as landscapes, flowers, trees, and other nature-inspired artwork. You’re also welcome to bring your own inspiration. This can be a favorite photo, an image saved on your phone, or printed reference.
As you build your artwork, you’ll learn how color, texture, and fiber placement work together to create depth, interest, and visual impact. No two pieces are ever alike, making this a wonderful opportunity to explore your creativity while learning the art of wet felting.
Your finished artwork will be approximately 10″ x 12″ and can be framed and displayed at home or incorporated into future fiber projects.
At the end of class, we’ll briefly discuss how needle felting can be used at home to add additional detail and dimension to finished felted artwork. This is a demonstration and discussion only; the project itself is completed using wet felting techniques.
No prior felting experience is necessary. Whether you’re completely new to fiber arts or looking to expand your creative skills, this workshop offers a fun, relaxing, and rewarding introduction to the art of wet felting.
New classes are added often. Please check back soon!
