I’ve seen needle felting a few times at different craft shows and have always thought it would be fun to try. The $10 penguin starter kit from michael’s was great so I thought, why not try something a little more challenging. I was inspired by sarafinafiberart.com as she makes these beautiful lifelike animals and had a video tutorial on how to make a mouse (my favourite!) Unfortunately, I didn’t have very mousy colours of wool to use and the face isn’t nearly as cute as the ones Sarah makes. I avoided finishing it for a week because I was so worried it would turn out creepy !! Overall though, I think it was a good first try. I’m currently staying at a hotel so I wonder what the cleaning staff have thought during my process of making this mouse! Eeek, it looked scary for a while!
Felted Mouse…or rat? I’m not sure.
