Good evening.... I just finished him this evening.. How he got started is kind of funny... First, it is very hard for me to see the difference in size of my needle felting needles, they are so thin.. I knew I should have marked them. The way I can tell is when I poke into the wool. So that is what I did with each one. I rolled up some wool and poked away, and it occurred to me that it looked very much like a poodle head! Go figure.. So that is how he started.. He is 5 1/2" in length and a little under 5" tall hope you enjoy viewing... Bebe is still in progress, she cannot make up her mind on what she wants to wear... I will try to hurry her along..
I would like to thank all of you for your lovely comments and always taking time to wander over for a visit.
Love and blessings,
Penny

OK...I am now ready for my day, because I just got my first dose of HAPPINESS and A SMILE for the day! PENNY! HE IS YOUR FIRST! Look at that head, it is the perfect poodle head! And he is so well groomed, as a French poodle should be! Oh I have always wanted a large (standard?) poodle and I would name him CLAUDE. teeheeee
ReplyDeleteJASPER IS ADORABLE! BRAVO MY DEAR! You have done it again. You have not only created a sweet wonder, but pure JOY. Not everyone can spin out abstract concepts. But you sure can!!!!
OK, off to teach at the French school....I will think of Jasper as I PARLE FRANÇAIS all the day!
BISOUS, Anita
