This is your second needle felting project ever? Wow, very well done. Can’t wait to see what you make next.

Adorable, well done for your third project. I didn’t get a chance to make any bunnies this year, glad to see you made the time!

Hi Joan, as long as they are felted firmly I think it would work. I’m afraid I have never tried regular quilt cotton, let me know what you find out. 🙂

Hi Andrea,
The videos are working for me. Can you explain what is happening please? So that I can try and help you?

It’s hard to get the glass eyes to work on tiny heads. The wire ends up getting in the way of the other eye wire making it difficult to insert them. The only other option other than making the head bigger is to use black wool for the eyes. Let me know if you have any more questions.

Hi Shannon! 🙂 We use the light brown for the camel.

Good question Pam! I have noticed over the years that those new to felting do not fully understand the need to felt things very well and if the ears are not felted very well they will not work or look nice. The wet felting is an added step to insure that they are felted very well and look smooth. Another issue is felting them too thick and wet felting will help to thin them out. The bear is an intermediate course and my thinking was that students would be ready by that time to felt ears well. Also at the intermediate level they would have a better understanding of the amount of wool to use to make the right sized ear. let me know if you have any more questions. 🙂

Hi Cindy, At the end of lesson three it shows how I add wool to make the tail. I do that by wrapping small amounts of wool around making it come to a point. Let me know any specific questions you may have.

Well done Lisa! It is difficult to get everything even and smooth with all the curves but you did very well. 😉
