Create a wonderful collection of animal friends with these needle-felted projects.
Using needle-felting techniques, Mia Underwood shows you the easy way to craft 35 adorable creatures from scratch. The felted friends can be given as toys to your children, as gifts to friends or simply used to adorn your home. Many can easily be made into attractive brooches or ornaments. Start your needle-felting journey with ‘Into the wild’ where you will find gorgeous projects like the Lord lion and the handsome Zebra. Spread your wings in chapter 2, where you will find friends like the Cheerful chicken and the Colourful parrot. After that, you can head ‘Into the woods’ and enjoy the company of the Bashful badger, Cheeky squirrel, Mister Fox and more. Finally, make up some ‘Perfect pets’ where you will find lovely household animals from the Dinky dachshund and Curious cat, to the Happy hamster and Perfect pony. The projects are designed for beginners and experienced crafters alike. As you follow the simple step-by-step instructions, you will be amazed at how quickly you can needle-felt yourself a collection of furry animals that will delight your children and impress your friends.
