Felted Ruddy duck I love to watch the ducks arrive in the spring and this year we had a new duck arrive. I have been enjoying watching these ducks with their unique tail feathers and courtship display. I took several pictures of them and felted a sculpture of this lovely bird. An original design by Teresa Perleberg of Bear Creek Design. This Common Ruddy duck is made entirely out of wool using the art of needle felting. The wool is from our sheep and is needle felted very solidly. He would make a beautiful and unique addition to any bird/decoy collection. $175.00 |

Felted Dairy Cow Dairy cows and beef cows are quite different in their composition. I have sculpted beef cows in the past and had to do some research as to how to form this cow. While studying pictures of Holsteins I sculpted this cow out of wool. This is a very detailed sculpture as I tried to capture all the details known to Dairy cows. This cow is 9 inches long and 6 inches tall and is made entirely out of wool using the art of needle felting. $275.00 | |||

Felted Wood Duck What fun it was to needle felt this beautiful bird! I love to photograph birds and this duck has to be one of my favorite ducks. I also love to work with bright colors. This duck started out as a fluff of carded wool. (from my flock of sheep) I studied beautiful pictures of wood ducks as I added wool here and there using the art of Needle Felting. Once I had the basic shape of the bird felted I added the beautiful colors of wool that I had dyed. He is very solidly felted, which took many hours of needle felting. He would make a very striking and unique addition to any decoy collection. He measures 9 1/2 inches from bill to tail, 5 inches tall and 4 1/2 inches wide. He is solid wool. The duck pictured is the duck you will receive. He is ready to ship. He will arrive quickly, and beautifully packaged. $275.00 |

Felting 101
So how do these soft fluffy fibers turn into something as solid and dense as felt fabric? Wool fibers have tiny crimps all along their length. This is what allows them to wrap around each other and hold tight during spinning in order to make yarn. These crimps also allow them to become hopelessly tangled among each other in order to create felt. The tricky part is getting it to turn into the shape you want! There are 2 methods that can be used to create felt. Wet felting, and needle felting. You may already be familiar with wet felting, if you ...

Hi, Teresa. I am ecstatic: I can hardly believe it, but my moose has just been delivered, by the Canada Post truck on a Sunday (which they must do only pre-Christmas, I guess) and he is BEYOND wonderful! Now we can both rest easy about the deliver, plus I will be able to include him in my Christmas decor (and all year round, too, of course)! Your photos on Etsy are lovely, but still the moose in real life is even more exquisite. And you did not need to worry at all about antler, ear or leg disarray: I can ...

About
We are a small family farm raising Registered Romney sheep. We offer wool for needle felting and hand spinning, needle felting kits and unique needle felted art made from our Romney wool. We also have market lambs and breeding stock available. I was raised on a farm in North Dakota and have been around pets and livestock my entire life which led to my affection for all animals. My love for the fiber arts began when I purchased a few sheep for our family. This project led to spinning, knitting and eventually needle felting. The Romney sheep ...
