I am so fascinated over how you manage to get your critters/bears a such vived expression in the faces by needlefelting. That amazes me huge!
Stunning work and congratulation to the award!

Thank you Kerri and Birgitta, I really love the felting part, even though it is quite hard on your hands

Kim I am in awe of your needle felting!! You definately have a natural talent for it thats for sure!!

I love this little guy... and I love your needle felting!!! Do you use the same markers you'd use on fur fabric to color the felt? (or are these taboo questions that you aren't supposed to ask?) ... I'm just afraid to take the markers to the felt... I'm afraid it will absorb it way faster than the fur does!!!

russellbears Jul 23, 2009

Hi Heather, thanks for your comment, yes i do use the same markers on the felt, and yes the felt is very thirsty, it requires alot of layering
