Make a Felt Sheep, Part 2

[klchatel]

For Nyeo246. You're pillow would need to be a natural material. Wool is best. Silk works and cotton, but you should test it first. The wool doesn't stick well on synthetic material. I hope you enjoy felting. There are instructions for more projects on my website at kim dot chatel dot com.

@klchatel Is it okay to use any pillow? My house has plenty and thanks. I can't wait to do it with my mum!

[cyberalienakuma]

Cool! I love any kind of technique for making dolls and similar stuff!! I really appreciate this!

[klchatel]

For psychodelicdragon: Yes that's all you need. There are links to suppliers that I use for this stuff on my website. Some of the bigbox craft stores now carry them too, but they'll be more expensive.

Good luck!

[psychodelicdragon]

so, all you need is the special needle and the wool, [piling?] pillow for cushion and lots of poking with the needle [felting]? right?

thanks for your vids! love the method!

i love the ending, mother and daughter scene, nice, and another small question, once you poke the poor plushie, it dosnt fall apart and its moveble?

[laurelmcf1]

It should not fall apart and ,if it has a wire frame inside it, will be (somewhat) pose able.

[colegionavarrete911]

whats the name of that material and how much it costs ?

[gizmo00999]

it's the material from sheeps.... wool , yes wool :)

[lawlzitsjen]

[ard666]

That is so0o cute I must try it

[mamoda]

I really want to try this. You make it look easy!! Thank you for making this video

[klchatel]

I don't really make holes for eyes, unless I'm gluing in glass eyes and then I just use the needle to poke a hole over and over until it is wide enough.

For eyes made of wool, I just make a small ball and then felt it on. On more sophisticated pieces I might make an indentation first and add an eyebrow afterwards.

Thanks for watching!

Fascinating! Just one question, how do you make the holes for the eyes?

Thanks for this helpful video!

[JimSelleck]

Very cool, Kim! I feel like I could actually DO this. Of course, they don't let me have sharp things...
