She is quite large as you can see by my hand.. I think I got carried away.. She is still a work in progress, need to finish her feet and wings... Not sure about her beak. I am thinking it may be a bit long.

With some of my wool sculptures I build a wire armature wound with yarn.. Not all, but some.. She is on of them. This way she can pose .
Mother Goose was needle felted with 100 % Natural wool gifted to me by dear
Dore of Burlap Luxe.. Please take a moment to visit her beautiful shop. She is an amazing artist in several mediums and turns furniture into pieces of art.. I am blessed to call her my friend. I believe Dore's shop is a true reflection of her soul.. Calm, soothing, peaceful, and full of beauty.
Can you believe it? Look at this georgeous wool. It is heaven to work with..
Well, what can I say except the needles are flying... Thank you from the bottom of my heart Dore...
This owl below ( Pumpkin) was also created with my gifted wool, and
dear Anita of Castles Crowns and Cottages purchased it as soon as I put it in my Etsy shop! What a sweetheart! Thank you dearest Anita! Please take a moment to visit Anita's Etsy shop.. She has added some of the most darling creations! Anita is also a very talented artist.. Her paper sculptures take my breath away.. Most of all, she is what you see. A beautiful, kind hearted, sensitive soul that has come into my life and is a true friend.
Pumpkin is 4 inches tall and will fly home tomorrow.
I have one owl left in my Etsy shop pictured below.
He is 3 inches tall.
This one is 3" Tall.
Thank you all for taking time to drop in for a visit.. I wish to thank everyone for your very kind thoughts and always here to cheer me on.. You have no idea how much your words touch my heart.
Update on Mother Goose
I finished her wings and feet yesterday.. She is all ready to take flight.

I finished her wings and feet yesterday.. She is all ready to take flight.
But not without her bonnet and shawl.... I fashioned them from grey felt
and cotton lace.. She can wear them when needed.
Love and blessings,
