What would be REALLY cool is if it was made from mouse fur!

This is very cute. I wish I knew where to buy material for needle felting, I think it's so beautiful.

You should try Etsy (www.etsy.com) as there are heaps of sellers on there who specialise in needle felting wool/roving. It's a great hobby - give it a go!

I want to find some in my city, but I'm finding it complicated. I'll have a look on etsy, they always have what I need there
Thanks!

It's... perfect! That must've been really difficult to make. I've once tried needle felting and it wasn't easy.

It was really tough but I actually loved the challenge. All of my previous needle felting projects have been a lot more simplistic so I loved the chance to stretch myself! That being said, it was scary too!

Your ambitious attempt definitely payed off =]! You've managed to capture the peaceful, sleeping expression of this little one really well, and I love how you've highlighted various aspects of the body with lighter-coloured fibres. Absolutely impressed ^ ^!

Thank you so much for your sweet comment! It was definitely a challenge but I loved the chance to stretch myself and try something a little (or a lot!) more difficult.

I thought it was a real mouse in the thumbnail, this is some incredible work!

Thank you so much! I really tried for realism this time so I'm glad that it can almost pass as a real mouse

That's a really beautiful mouse you've made! I love how he fits in that box, so cute!

Thank you! It all started with finding the sugar bowl and then wondering what I could put inside, then deciding a grey mouse would look great with the colours on the bowl... and the rest is history

Nuh uh, your sock monkeys are the cutest things ever! I wish I could make sock monkeys but I am all thumbs - and they have none! It's a bad match hehe

Hehe, thank you!
I have done some felting before and understand the skill that it takes to make felted creations like you did! That takes serious skills!

Well thank you! I like it because it takes time and patience, and I like being able to slow down and focus on something for a while
