Cookie 3-1/2" Gnome lovin' MOUSE Needle Felted By Barby Anderson (not for sale)
Can I ask you a question? they little needle felt things I've been making are just amateur, I was going to try and make a bird, with a wire armature, for the first time, do your mice have wire inside? are their little paws wire wrapped with cotton? If they are how do you do that? is it just a case of covering the wire with some glue and then wrapping the cotton? Does needle felting with wire armatures become easier with time? cos its really bugging me! Any help is great, thanks :)
I would have been so happy to help you with all of your questions except one thing. My paying customers would be very angry if I gave away free info when I sell it in my classes. I used to email people all the time explaining how I do things but I cannot anymore due to my classes and paying customers. I hope you are not offended but you can see where they would not be happy when they paid for my class. I am so sorry.
The Mama Gnome was made by Helen Priem!

I love it!!!!
How long does it take you to make your little mice? they're very pretty :)
Very cute as ever. :)
Thank you Marja, Sarah and Sharon!
Sarah, it depends on what clothing the mouse is wearing. Anywhere from 4-6 hours.
4-6 HOURS!?! It would take me 4-6 months! lol :)
Awwww....no it wouldn't Sarah. Many of the people who take my classes have their critters done in a day. Remember they are only 3 inches tall. :)
haha! no really it would take me months ;)
