Have any of you seen or done needlefelted pictures?

I was looking for a needlefelting pattern on eBay and came across this:

I've never heard of doing such a thing before.

I guess needlefelting can be endless!!!

Yeah, I've heard of this. DIdn't interest me too much though. If I can't cuddle it..............LOL

Really, if it's wool you can felt. I just made a bag that was knitted then felted. Very cool stuff. I imagine I could also needle felt stuff right onto the bag if I felt to inclined.

But, to make a picture, 1st you need to make a flat piece of felt, and That I have a hard time with. I find it hard to get it firm. I was trying to make one to turn into dragon wings and it's not working too well.

Okay, now I'm rambling.........must.............stop................................ bear_wacko

WOW Charlotte, amazing stuff. Thanks for the link. Needle felted ATC's would be wonderful.
I've seen needle felted critters on baby blankets. But up til now I really didnt pay too much attention.
I always wanted to do that type of felting on my paw pads. But with so much else I want to do..............
