It gets harder and harder to find pictures of things I’ve made that I haven’t shown you guys at some point in the past. I know I haven’t posted this one, because the receiver of this gift (wayyyy back in 2017) actually reads my journal and I didn’t want her to see it before Christmas. And by the time Christmas was over we had moved into the really dark days when J’s nephew died, and I never got back to sharing it.

So … this is needle felting of a 3-dimensional piece of art.

When I first made the sheep they did not look anything like sheep, J actually stated that they looked more like maggots. Um, ew. (Hahaha … I guess I could have said, ewe!) I found that by adding a bit of shadow underneath them and attaching their heads more securely to the bodies it resolved that issue. I think I also made them rounder. Whatever … I am still super pleased with the outcome of this project.

Not pleased enough to attempt another one, but one day I will.
