[ID START: Illustration of Vash and Wolfwood from Trigun: Maximum. Wolfwood is holding Vash’s head to his chest, his right hand resting gently over his ears and his left hand againtst Vash’s nape. Wolfwood looks at him melancholically as he soothes him. Vash’s eyes are shut, small tears at the corner of his eyes, asleep, and his right hand is holding onto Wolfwood’s arm. Feathered and plant wings are growing out of him, enveloping the both of them like a cocoon, leaving enough space for their heads and arms. The feathered plant wings takes up most of the canvas, colored in dark and muted blues. END]
Hello everyone needs to look at the sheep I just needle felted onto my gloves
The bodies are just some random white locks I had nearby which were suitably soft and fluffy (the pink sheep was avocado dyed debouillet again). The legs and horns are some black wool I spun bc I couldn't felt them small enough, so I just spun a quick 2 ply and embroidered them on. The faces are also embroidery with the handspun black wool--just some French knots. Was happy to find I still remember how to do them.
The gloves are kinda old and my work gloves so they're not in very good shape, but I'm not ready to make another pair. They started as badly washed Suffolk fleece which I dyed with horse chestnut hulls, carded into rolags, spun into a 2 ply, and knit into gloves using a self drafted pattern.
I needle felted my friend a little Amy figure before she left the country, I finished her at 4 am and got 2 hours of sleep 🫡
I've only needle felted a couple small things before this (and the last thing I made was 4 years ago). So. I kind of just jumped into it and hoped I wouldn't run into any problems lmao
If I am going to experiment with making some kind of needle felted wall art thing, what do you think I should make? I'm thinking possibly fish, or a sunset, or something
