| Hi everyone Besides using our mohair for reborns I also use it to make other things such as wall hangings and bags. I've put a couple of images below. Hopefully i have done it correctly, i'm only new. Amanda x   http://newmoorbarn.files.wordpress.com/2012/06/angora-goat-kid-bernard-and-bettie.jpg Couldn't resist putting in pictures of our kid goats, not created by me but i do feed them! Thanks for looking Amanda | |

| Ok Sorry I think i have got it now. So below I've (hopefully) put 3 pictures, A Felted wall Hanging, one of a bag created with a mix of our mohair and other sheeps fleece, and couldn't resist an extra picture of Bernard and Bettie, 2 of our goat kids!   http://a6.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/s480x480/599437_180196608780687_2013093262_n.jpg Ax | |

| These are beautiful, I have seen felting at craft shows, but never tried it, I thought it looked so difficult, but now I wouldn't mind trying this.

| i like both of the pictures with the needle felting, you must be very talented to do this,  i love the detailing in both, very very good. i did think about trying to do some pets for my dolls house, but i wouldnt know where to start, ive seen some on ebay but they go a bit too much in price for me to what i can afford, so maybe i should try, and probly end up with a ball of fluff,  maybe maybe one day.......... he he i will try.......luv Vicky xx | |

| Love the bear Ceinwen, I've never tried 3D felt projects, maybe you could give some tips for vicky for her animals.
Thanks for all your comments.

| not sure I could felt to 12t h scale LOL. It is fairly easy to make small figures, yo roll the felt into shapes and then start stabbing. I have started using polystyrene shapes as well which saves on wool, got the WI ladies making Xmas tree ornaments and found some bird shapes to make robins | |
