Besides bears, you might see one of my new needle felted friends. I've been having lots of felting and wanted to be sure to include a short description of needle felting here just in case you've never heard of it or are not really sure what it is: Felting Needles are straight needles with barbs cut along the shaft. When repeatedly pushed into a tuft of wool felt fibers, the barbs pull the fibers down, compressing and locking them together. The barbs are cut in one direction so that felting or matting together of the fibers will occur when the needle is pushed in and not when it is pulled out. This matting/felting process makes a large ball of fluff condense down into a denser mass of wool. Poking more in one spot will depress that area creating a dent or depression in your sculpture to make, for example, an eye socket.
