Punch Needle Workshop for Beginners

Jump on board the latest trend in fibre craft and indulge your artistic streak!



3 hours Class size 1 to 8 (public classes), 5 to 10

label $190 (or 4 payments of $47.50 Afterpay)

Punch needle brings together the best of embroidery and rug hooking in a fun and efficient way. And in this Sydney class, you can jump on board this fun trend and learn how to punch needle!

Absolutely no experience is necessary for the class, as this technique is easy to learn and quicker to finish than embroidery - many people have likened it to painting with yarn.

Choose one of three colour palettes that can be used in any of three designs and join Rebecca from Made By Me Workshop who will teach you how to stretch fabric onto a hoop, transfer a design to your fabric and how to use a punch needle to complete your chosen design.

If you're really keen to complete the entire set let us know and we will bring additional colour and fabric sets to the workshop for you.

Please indicate which colour yarn set you would like on booking. (Additional yarn and fabric sets can be purchased for $30 at the workshop, if you're interested please let us know beforehand so we can bring along extra sets)



Knowledge required
Perfect for beginners.
 
What you'll get
  • Amy Oxford number 10 Regular Punch Needle: the best Punch Needles available today, they are handcrafted from maple wood and stainless steel and come with a lifetime guarantee valued at $60 - they will be a lovely addition to any crafter's tool kit.
  • 7” Morgan Non-Slip Embroidery Hoop: these have a unique patented feature, a tongue and groove configuration which holds your fabric securely. No-slip means no-slip, there is no movement of your works until it is removed from the ring - valued at $25.
  • Monk’s Cloth: this 100% cotton high quality and very durable fabric is the most popular backing for punch needle.
  • Woollen Yarn: a choice of three colour sets (Blue, Green or Pink as pictured) each containing four different colours that you will need to complete your choice of design.
  • A set of three designs as pictured - any of the designs can be made up in any of the colour sets.

Such a mindful craft, Rebecca was amazing in demonstrating the steps and personal tips, so satisfying the results and from the comfort of home (online). It was very exciting to receive the package with quality material and everything ready to go. Super enjoyable, and will keep creating.

Carmen Shields • Jun 2020


Thoroughly enjoyed this workshop and loved being able to link up from the other side of the country via Zoom! Rebecca is a fabulous teacher who not only knows her craft inside out, but explains it simply and uses the technology so well it feels like you're right there with her. Really fun morning! Thank you again :-)

I found this class incredibly enjoyable. Receiving the kit in the mail was also very exciting - especially with all the little treats! Punch needling (is that the verb?) was a lovely craft to learn - it’s very satisfying to see results so quickly. Rebecca was a great teacher, so easy to understand and helpful. I look forward to doing more of her classes in the future.

This course was lots of fun. Rebecca is a great teacher. Also very responsive and kudos for finding great alternatives to the products that didnt get shipped on time because of covid. My adjustable punch needle is great. Highly recommend this course if you want to learn punch needle!

LOVED the class. Rebecca made it extremely easy to navigate and learn, which isn’t easy over an internet platform! So happy with my new skill and what I achieved in a short 1.5hrs. I’ll definitely be exploring Needle Punch further now. Thanks Rebecca

Rachel Launders • May 2020


Teaching craft to the uncrafty me via Zoom is challenging. Rebecca’s multiple camera angles really helped see what I needed to do. Pretty happy with what I achieved in the class time.

Francine Costa • May 2020


Thanks for a great workshop Rebecca I had such a good afternoon.
I have wanted to try punch needle for some time but have not known how to even start.
The kit was lovely with everything needed and your instructions and assistance was wonderful.
I managed to finish my first piece and I’m pretty happy with my first attempt.

I’d been wanting to sign up for a class at the Tramsheds and was really excited to heave the opportunity to try things online. Rebecca made things easy to follow and discussed multiple options should I expand my explorations of punch needling.
