Create your own ‘paintings’ out of fibre.

I run needle-felting workshops throughout the year, teaching the art of creating 'paintings' with natural fibres – including 100% wool fibre, bamboo and cotton.

Whether you're completely new to needle-felting or already experienced with fibre arts, you're warmly invited to join in. My workshops are designed to be achievable for beginners while still offering inspiration and techniques for more seasoned felters.

​

If you've never tried making a needle-felted fibre painting before, don't worry – I'll guide you through each step, from choosing your colours to building up your layers to create wonderful blends and depth. 

​

If no New Zealand-based events are currently listed here, it simply means I'm between workshops for now – but more are on the way! Right now I am working on an online workshop that will be available to everyone worldwide. To be among the first to hear about new dates, please sign up for my email newsletter (below).

​

Can’t get to one of my workshops? Never fear, there is another way to learn my techniques. Please check out my latest book, ‘Needle-felting with Sarah Ritchie: Fibre painting pattern collection 1’, HERE which has all the instruction you will need, plus 10 of my original pattern designs.
