I recently began needle felting. Needle felting is the art of sculpting wool into form by stabbing it thousands of times with a barbed needle. It is very time intensive but well worth the effort for the beautiful results. I make custom needle felted animals to look like your pet, dog, cat, horse, etc. Of course my favorite ones to make are chihuahuas. ;)
If you would like a custom pet portrait/sculpture of your pet, you can visit my etsy shop at:
This is a needle felted sculpture of Bouncer.
