This is Blueberry. He's 3 inches tall, and needle felted. He's jointed in the neck and feet.
He's the cutest!!!!!
Beautiful blue colors... I've never done a needle-felted critter. Is it difficult to make them with joints?

Thank you both so much! Becky, I'm very new to this, but I don't find it difficult at all. But my needle felted figures are just jointed with thread. I used waxed linen thread, as it is very strong. I just poke a needle with thread through the parts, tighten it really good, and make a knot. Then i cover the knots with more felting. I'm making a sewed miniature now, with disc joints, and that is so much harder!
Thread jointing...That makes good sense!
