Make a Bush Flower Pom Pom

NGV Kids on Tour 2025

Wednesday 15th January
1.30 - 2.30pm
Be inspired by the natural world. Create a bush flower pompom using yarn, embroidery thread and colourful felts to then tag to your school bag, key chain or anything else!

​

Inspired by the work of Sophie Honess, a Gamilaroi Yinarr artist based in Tamworth, New South Wales. She creates colourful textile art referencing her ancestral lands of Daruka on Gomeroi Country. Using wool, Sophie carefully crafts wall hangings that celebrate the natural beauty of grasses, creek beds, grains of sand, and bush plants like wattle and eucalyptus flowers found on Country.
