Something New

I'm trying something new. Needle Felting. I made a mouse today, a blind mouse. He has no eyes because the beads for the eyes are so small that my needle won't go through them. It was a fun little project and I only stabbed myself several hundred times, tiny wounds that bled little.

      I think I'd like to try that when I get really good at it. I'm trying to decide whether I want to do the second one according to the package directions or try my own design.

    He is so adorable...It is a boy? He looks so real, and the way he sits up... sorry you got stuck to many times. I had never heard of needle felting,.Clever.

      A boy? I don't know. I never checked. ha ha!
      Maybe it wasn't quite that many times. My friend Kim suggested a thimble but I might need a whole handful of them!

      Thank you. I can hardly wait to try again, after my fingers heal, of course. ;)
