You Want to Create Beautiful Needle Felted Animals—But You Don’t Know Where to Start
You’ve got the wool. The desire. Maybe even a half-finished project.
But you’re unsure what to do next—and it’s keeping you from creating the way you want to.
Needle Felting Should Be Fun—But It Can Be Frustrating
-
“I don’t know what tools or wool to use.”
-
“I’m not sure when it’s felted enough.”
-
“It never turns out how I imagined.”
-
“I feel like I’m just stabbing and hoping.”
And worst of all…
👉 “I’m not sure I’m artistic enough to be doing this.”
Left on your own, it’s easy to give up too soon—or never truly enjoy the process.
Hi, I’m Teresa—Your Felting Guide (and Sheep Farmer)I’ve been needle felting for over 15 years—and raising the sheep that provide the wool! I know how confusing it can be to get started. That’s why I created the Bear Creek Needle Felting Academy:
So you can stop guessing, start creating, and fall in love with the process.
🎯 You don’t need to be an artist. You just need a guide.

TESTIMONIALS
Don’t Just Take My Word for it!
“The tutorials are unparalleled! She breaks every step down and demonstrates it. If you have to stop the tutorial, it is very simple to pick up where you left off. My end product is getting better as I practice. I watch her video each time I make the woolen creatures and see something more that builds on my learning.
The Romney wool I’ve bought from Bear Creek is easier to use than the wool bought from a couple of other places.”

Still Wondering if It’s Right for You?
“Do I need experience?”
Not at all! The Academy is designed to welcome complete beginners. You’ll find step-by-step courses that walk you through the basics—what wool to use and how much, how to hold your needle, how firm to felt, and more. If you’ve never picked up a felting needle before, this is the perfect place to start.
“What if I’m not artistic?”
You don’t need to be “naturally artistic” to succeed. Needle felting is a skill anyone can learn with the right guidance—and that’s exactly what you’ll get inside the Academy. The lessons are designed to build your confidence and skills step-by-step. You’ll be amazed at what you can create.
What kinds of projects are included?
You’ll find a wide variety of projects including animals (like sheep, foxes, bunnies, llamas, bears, penguins, and more), seasonal decorations, felt pouches, ornaments, and even wool painting. There are also technique-based lessons for things like open mouths, smoothing fur, and more.
What materials will I need?
Most courses use just a felting needle and high-quality wool. Inside the Academy, you’ll find a full materials list for each course, along with clear recommendations on what to use (and what to avoid). I also provide links to kits and wool that I raise myself—so you know you’re using materials that work.
Is this a one-time payment or a subscription?
You can join monthly for $29.99/month or get the best value with an annual membership for $299/year. Both options give you full access to all video courses, the private community, discount and live sessions.
Can I upgrade from monthly to annual later?
Yes! You can upgrade anytime. If you join monthly and decide you love it (we think you will!), it’s easy to switch to the annual plan to save money.
What happens if I cancel?
You’ll continue to have access until your paid period ends—nothing shuts off right away. And if you cancel your subscription, you won’t be charged again. You can always rejoin anytime!
