Felting Photo Shoot

The Happy Family

Here are my latest needle felting projects. I am really enjoying making little creatures out of felt, and I hope to get more creative as time goes by. Don’t they make fine models? They enjoyed their outing to a park in Lynden to get photographed. They were hamming it up in front of the camera, quite the characters.

Bluebird of Love

I did this Bluebird of Love first. I saw other people online that were doing different birds and such, so that sparked the idea for me. I thought about some of my favorite birds, and I just love the colors of the blue birds. It’s probably my favorite out of these three, I think its too cute.

A Cool Blue Penguin

Then I went to a local class and did the penguin. I didn’t want to do the traditional black and white, so I got a little creative with my colors. I think she is quite cute in purple and blue.

A Fine Rooster

The last one is my rooster I finished the other evening. He was an original idea, which I am quite proud of, because there are many times that I feel like I am not being creative, and just copying other peoples ideas. The more I can come up with my own designs the more unique and cute they will be I think.

I am signed up for another class in a couple of weeks, at which we will be making sheep. That should be a lot of fun, because I have a big soft spot for sheep. These little guys are a great project to do in the evening while sitting in front of the tv, or just relaxing listening to some good music.

  1. Your felted feather friends are fantastic! I’ve been waiting for them. I LOVE your rooster. His colours are so… rooster-ish – great choice. His tail is so cool.
    Like you, I am loving being creative and am also venturing into original ideas. It’s so much fun.
    I finally got my ‘Hand-made Christmas’ post up tonight, with photos showing the felted christmas dolls, gnomes, tree, toadstool, balls, etc, I made my kids for Christmas.
    Thanks for your comment about my felted sheep… it was my first comment, ever… such a thrill!
    Enjoy making your sheep at your class and be sure to post a photo 🙂

  2. Hi Stacey,

    Thank you for visiting my blog! These little felt animals are so cute! I especially liked the rooster with his plumey, feathery tail!

  3. The jaunty rooster is brilliant! The gallumphing yellow legs and feet balance him out fine visually. I can almost see a complete henhouse and yard with a variety of chicken types – is it possible you’ll become known as the Famous Chicken Lady? G

  4. I love to hear what everyone likes, it sounds like the rooster has made top of the class so far. Thank you for all the kind comments.

    geogypsy: I will have to give a go on the javelina, I think they are cute, and that would be a fun project. Thank you for the idea! I always love inspiration from anyone.

    suburbanlife: I think you are right, I think there might be a chicken collection coming on….. I am crazy about them after all (its kinda strange I know). hehe, chicken lady maybe, but famous? dunno.

  5. Stacey!! They are just wonderful! I love them all, but my favourite is the rooster. I can’t believe you would consider yourself as not being creative?!?!?

  6. My favorite is the rooster as well (but then I am particularly partial to my chickens :-).

    Thanks for visiting my blog. It is fun to ‘meet’ other Pacific Northwesterners!

  7. They are gorgeous! I love the rooster 🙂 Your photos of them are simply brill. I look forward to seeing the sheep next.

  8. These are the most adorable cutest creative little crafts!You are gifted! I am amazed how each nature lover has their own authentic way in expressing their appreciation of Natures gifts.
    You amaze me and I LOVE that little blue bird with heart! NG

  9. I had a brief go at felting the other week, now I can’t wait to give it a go myself, I’m a bit of a brooch junkie, that’s the direction I’ll be heading…. with some beads and shiny threads
