Just got started with needle felting and was hung up on armature technique. Then I found your video. Thank you! Your instruction are fantastic, and include applying the concepts to multiple examples which is exceptionally helpful for being able to generalize the learning.

Love Heidi Feathers needles they are the best imo. Best needle case as well free when you buy the variety, very handy to get in and out of, keeps needles safely and a great size to throw in your kit.

I wonder how she attaches the foot to the animal.

@ptrishagamin6398

@@certifiedyogateacher I'm not sure what method she uses, I would simply poke the armature wire ( leg wire ) into it with a bit of glue and then add a bit of wool at the joint and felt it on attaching the two together. I'm sure there are other ways.

It depends on what you've used in the structure of your animal. Like Ptrisha says if the legs are made with armature you could poke the wire from the leg into the foot etc. Quite often I will add these feet to a purely wool made animal so I add a good tuft of wool to where the 'ankle' would be. Stab it into the foot and then stab that into the animal. Or build the leg up around the foot and attach that.

Great video. How do you attach the little hands/feet to the body of the mouse?

Thank you so much. I attach by adding more wool and build up the ankle the same way as you would with any non wire felted foot or body part 😊

hi could you tell me what size is the fox your making as I am going to make one do you think 6inc by 6inc. Pippa Hudson

I used aluminum wire to do a fairly large horse sculpture, and by the time I got to the 3rd leg it broke at the knee, I had to get very creative to fix it. I no longer use it and have moved to a steel ( non rust) utility wire I get at the local hardware store. It comes on a 5lb roll and costs alot less money than craft wire.

Good idea. Not great that it broke though. Must have been frustrating. Once you get to larger wire it's really about strength, so yes using a strong wire or at least reinforcing by twisting is a good idea.

think I'll try fox first!

Wonderful Anne. I'd love to know how it goes for you. 😊

hi could you tell me if it’s ok to make the fox size wise is 6inc by 6inc I’m going to make one could you give me some idea how big should I go please

@FittobeLovedFelts

4 ай бұрын

Yes you can choose whatever size you like. Bigger will need more wool but can be easier when first trying to get the details right. Bigger needs good strength of the wire to support the wool.the smaller you go just watch your fingers as more likely to stab yourself abd wrapping wool over wire can be trickier.. I'd go no smaller than 6 inches on a first project. I've not managed to do my fox video showing the rest of it yet but just look at lots of photos for fur colours and details and I'm sure you'll be fine. 😊

How do you attach the tiny feet to the rest of the project?

Thanks for sharing what you need. I have quite a long list of ideas for videos but can add this to it. I do offer one to one trouble-shooting-sessions if you would like some advice on how to tackle a specific animal you are making. 😊
