Hedgehogs are super cute - but do you find those spikes tricky to felt?
I did too until I figured out this super easy way to make those spikes from wool yarn, and now I can't stop felting hedgies!
The course is broken up into 7 step-by-step video tutorials and printable templates that will break down everything into easy steps that you can felt along with. You'll watch exactly how I felt hedgehogs and see how easy those spikes can be.
You can watch the videos at your own pace, pause, stop, replay any part of the videos, allowing you to master and perfect your felting technique.
Let's felt hedgehogs!!
Course Curriculum
Hi, I’m Nancy of nan.c designs.
It’s been over 10 years since I quit work as a graphic designer and made fibre art my full time business. I teach workshops, and sell my fibre art at fairs and art shows. I sell felting kits and my hand-dyed felting wool at www.nancdesigns.ca. I felt all the time and I am the author of the instructional and inspirational book Next Level Felting. I’m pretty busy making my art into a successful business but it keeps me out of trouble!
I feel blessed to be able to live a life full of art and creativity.
I'm so excited to be working with you on this course, and can't wait to see your hedgehogs being created.
Easy to find supplies with a printable supply list as well as video's explaining the supply choices.
Seven video's break down the steps so it's easy to felt along.
"I thoroughly enjoyed this hedgehog video tutorial and love how my 'Spike' turned out 🙂
The instructions were clear, demonstrated at a good pace, and easy to follow. I loved that I was able to 'felt along' with nan.c and particularly liked the sound of us needle felting in sync. It was kind of soothing 🙂
I thought the multi video presentation was an excellent way to deliver the instructions. It was easy to pause the video, or return to the beginning, when I need a bit more time to complete a section.
I've taken a number of 'in person' classes and enjoy the social aspect of being in a group but, I have to say, I also enjoyed doing this video course as it felt like I was having 1:1 instruction. I would definitely take another on-line course from nan.c designs."

"It was such a pleasure to do your online course. I made one hedgehog with the help of both of my daughters, ages 8 and almost 6. We pretty much each took a turn with every step.
We will likely make more and try different fun colours. They are already talking about making miniature hedgehogs...
I found the course very well put together and easy to follow. I think our hedgehog turned out really cute and we are all pleased with the result. I think we will be purchasing more courses."
