Teddy Talk: Creating, Collecting, Connecting

I have never seen those little flower pins they are a good idea , but the needle that break long enough i make new handles for them from friendly plastic.

Lovely to read all your posts, as I am a self taught felter and I sometimes wonder if I would have been taught different techniques had I taken a course. I use wire if I want a limb posable but I find firmly felted wool is strong enough most of the time. I use either craft wire the way rkr4cds does it for thinner limbs or Pipe cleaners for thicker parts, The thing I find hardest is sewing the heads on and retaining movement as well as strength. may try a wire thanks Patricia  I can see what you mean about needling in the right direction to keep the wire central. All the noses I have seen on this thread look great to me.  Juliet
