Today we are starting a new project in our handicraft series - a needle-felted fox! We have several reasons for choosing a fox. First of all, they're just so cute. They also provide the opportunity for us to try a slightly more complicated armature than our last project, the needle-felted sheep, and we're going to learn how to apply fur. We're going to break this project up into 3 videos. It's a little more in depth than our previous projects, and can certainly not be done in one sitting. I also find that when things are...

Today we are going to be completing our needle-felted sheep that we started in our last post. Having completed the armature, we are going to move on to the application of the wool, filling out the sheep's head and body. This handicraft continues to bring us joy, and I'm afraid it's going to be very hard to move on to our next handicraft, as we've enjoyed this one so much. With our enjoyment comes the desire to continue to learn and develop skill. And I hope you experience this desire as well. Handicrafts are not...

Working on our Needle Felting handicraft series has been so rewarding! Each week, we work to develop learned skills and add new skills, and our project today is no exception. Today we are taking a big step by learning how to make an armature for a needle-felted sheep. This is an exciting step for us, as it feels like we've finally developed enough skills to create anything we want. What is an Armature? Erect sculptures of animals and humans need an armature to help support and position them. An armature can be thought of as similar to a...

Materials Needed In our previous post, I shared with you all of the materials needed to complete our needle-felted blue bird of happiness project. I hope you...

From the first day that we started our needle-felting series, I have wanted to make a needle-felted Blue Bird of Happiness. There is something so delightful about this little character, and I've always wanted one for my office or living room. The blue bird has long been a symbol of not just happiness, but of joy, hope, and luck throughout the world, and it is no different in our back yard. A blue bird always has the ability to stop any one of us in our tracks. We gaze in wonder at its beauty and grace, and at least for...

Oh my goodness! You can't get any cuter than this needle-felted piglet! I think that as we get further and further into the handicraft of needle felting, our projects get more and more enjoyable, and more and more adorable. We're learning a lot as we go, including how to use the different tools, wool, and techniques. And as we learn, the results improve significantly. It's going to be fun, when we're done, to look back at our humble beginnings to see our improvements! Materials Needed If you've been following along with us in this needle felting series, you will already have all...
