Punch Needle Bumblebee

Imagine creating a unique 3D fluffy bumblebee artwork to hang on your wall. In this workshop, Jo will guide you through the process of punch needling and line stitching a three-dimensional bumblebee onto canvas. This bee will be permanently affixed to a circular card with an integral hanging wire, ready to adorn your home!

Punch needling is an easy and addictive form of needlework. It involves using a hollow needle tool to punch wool into fabric mounted on an embroidery hoop to keep it tightly in place. The punch needle creates loops that are held through the material with the tension of the fabric, and the wool loops can then be trimmed to create a pleasing sculptural shape.

Hi. My name is Jo. I am an artist and writer. By day, I work at a Bristol Primary School, specialising in teaching English to students who need a little extra help and encouragement. In my free time, I’m a creative, always working on a new project. I feel that art is a lovely mediative activity that should be available to all, regardless of experience.
