Needle felted sheep
P of Maggie's Farm inspired me to finally try needle felting. I've only had the stuff for over a year. It was actually really fun and easy! I made this little sheep. I didn't have any black wool so it is a gray sheep. I've seen sheep this color. Sorry the pictures are a little blurry, my camera is awful at up close pictures!

Those are cute! So how do you needle felt?
So cute! I bought a Teddy Bear kit on eBay, I can't wait to try it.
How cute!
The needle felted sheep is so cute!
I still think you need to sell on Etsy. You are so creative!
Have a great weekend.

Christy,
You have a real knack for fiber arts, my friend. I agree with Pam. Consider opening up an Etsy shop. I'm sure you'll do well.
And the proceeds can help pay for your future animal menagerie :)

Pam and Lisa - Thank you for the wonderful compliment! I certainly don't feel talented, but I do enjoy working with fiber. Good thing I'm going to get some sheep huh? I think I may open an Etsy store. I just need to get some better pictures of my stuff.
Melody - Basically you poke wool over and over with a sharp, barbed needle. The wool clumps together and you can shape it and attach other pieces. It is much easier than crocheting and knitting.
How big is it before you felt it?
He's a cutie!
Too cute,great job;)
That is so cute!
CUTE CUTE CUTE!!!!
It is a cute sheep!
How sweet! Did you use a single needle or one of those tools with multiple needles?
Hey Christy,
About that Polish Rooster, that's alright. You know Bad boy Rooster was a Golden Polish? Plus the one we kept is just as mean.
Our Polish hens are not real good layers. We hardly get any eggs from them.
I do have a grown Buff Orpington Rooster that has a limp. If you want him to go with your girls, you are welcome to him. He is in with the call ducks right now because the other Buff rooster fought with him.
