That’s his name. I hope Barbara won’t mind . This is my first needle felting experience, I had done a bit of wet felting last year and I promised myself to try this craft once more in depth. To dress this little goblin, I can’t believe I actually learned to knit and embroider. Normally I have no patience with needles. But I was swept from my feet right into a whirlwind of creativity, and it felt wonderful. And who would have thought that goblins could be fashion victims ? It’s like felt and embroidery belong together.
Once again, I broke some rules and mixed the two techniques, wet felting and needle felting. Wet felting goes much faster but the needle is better for details. Overall, I found needle felting really time consuming and very difficult, especially when it comes to faces. I’m surprised I managed to get rid of all the poke marks. I found out that past a certain stage, it was better to cut all the fuzzies with some small scissors.
I’m eager to keep on the felting adventure but I have to finish first the painting I’m working on. And there is also the ceramic of course.
A special thank you to Lune for giving me a starter kit !
Well, I don’t mind of course… though your Ulrick has not very much in common with mine ! Except that it looks like a very nice creature !
Good ;-)!
Your felted goblin is so lovely, great job! Have a very, very creative week. Or maybe the whole month :)
Best wishes from stormy Warsaw.
Thank you, Ioanna! Best wishes to you too! And enjoy the storm, it’s a perfect setting for a hot cup of tea.
Il est juste… adorable
Merci Faery! :-)
