Wool Creations-Needle Felted Soft Sculptures

This little kitty is about to take a swat at his friend. (I'm making the friend today.) I made this practice piece to try out a new way to attach the legs which did work out very well. The limbs are poseable on this sculpture.

He has a very soft finish, done with a short fiber Merino wool. I've been experimenting with different finishes to see which get the best results. I love using the Merino wool because it does not leave the "dreaded fuzzies" on the surface. I don't like the look of loose fiber poking out of the finish. No matter how well you work the surface there always seems to be one or two fibers standing straight up.

So, today I need to add whiskers to this little fellow and make him a friend.
