A Moment to Remember

You'll walk away with a finished pillow, a unique handcrafted piece you made yourself. A perfect experience to share with a friend, a partner, or a family member.


Step into Le Studio Anthost, a textile atelier in the heart of Greenpoint, Brooklyn, and spend a few hours creating something completely your own. No experience or artistic background is required, just curiosity and a willingness to play with color and texture!
In this workshop, you will discover Paint with Wool -- a signature technique created by textile artist Astrid. Inspired by the freedom of painting, this technique uses a multi-needle tool, working wool directly into a textile in short, rhythmic strokes, building color, pattern, and texture layer by layer -- the way a painter would fill a canvas, but entirely using wool. If you've ever wondered how to make a pillow or how to make a pillow cover from scratch, this hands-on technique is one of the most playful and forgiving ways to learn.
You will start by choosing your motif and your wool colors from a curated selection. Then, guided by Astrid, you will learn how to use the multi-needle tool and work the wool into the fabric until your pattern takes shape. What starts as a blank linen canvas gradually becomes a one-of-a-kind pillow cover, fully decorated and designed entirely by you. By the end of the session, your pillow cover will be finished and ready to take home with its insert!
All materials are included: linen fabric, wool, a multi-needle tool, and pillow insert. Complimentary seasonal wine and bites will be served throughout the class. Whether you're a lifelong maker or someone who's simply always wanted to learn how to make cushion covers, this Paint with Wool workshop is perfect for creatives looking for a unique and memorable experience in NYC with friends. Step in, create, sip, and leave with a custom pillow

Recent reviews of Design Your Own Pillow Workshop with Wine

  • 5/5 from Anthony Mejias, attended Oct 2026: The workshop was extremely fun (and a good stress reliever). The studio owner is very friendly and conducts the workshop in three components. First, an intro and demostration of wool painting (the actual wool, how to pull the wool and how to use the needles). Next is the student goes to work on his/her design (and help with design by the stdio owner). Last component is that the studio owner only got involved if a direct question was asked, or she saw something that advice/suggestion would help the student. I look forward to other workshops becoming available by Le Studio Anhorst.

  • 5/5 from Tere, attended Aug 2026: Such an amazing experience. The Design Your Own Pillow Workshop was calming, grounding, and genuinely relaxing. I sometimes have a hard time focusing because my mind can feel very busy, and this experience really helped quiet that mental noise and allowed me to be fully present in what I was creating. Astrid made the experience even more special. She is so sweet, funny, and incredibly passionate about what she does and what she teaches. You can really feel how much she cares about creating a welcoming space and helping people enjoy the creative process. I loved being able to slow down, work with my hands, laugh, and just enjoy the moment. I left feeling lighter, more centered, and inspired. Thank you, Astrid, for such a thoughtful and beautiful experience. I would absolutely do it again and highly recommend it!

Le Studio Anthost is a Brooklyn-based textile atelier founded by Astrid de Saint Anthost, a French artist and craftwoman who grew up in Paris and trained at Atelier Dynale, whose clients included John Galliano at Dior, Alexander McQueen at Givenchy, and Christian Lacroix.
After moving to New York, Astrid channeled the city's energy into building her own studio. What started in fashion gradually evolved into something broader: in 2017, she launched an interior textile collection, and Le Studio Anthost went on to collaborate with some of the most celebrated interior design firms in the country, including recipients of the AD 100 and Elle Decor A-List distinctions.
Today, Astrid brings that same expertise into the workshop space because she believes these techniques shouldn't live behind closed studio doors. Needle punch is one of her favorite crafts to teach: tactile, intuitive, and endlessly satisfying.
The studio itself is part of the experience. Set in a true artist's atelier in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, it carries a creative energy that's hard to describe and easy to feel the moment you walk in.
