When basenjis help (or not)
-
How did you learn about this, and learn to do it? Your little basenji is absolutely amazing. I used to crochet a bit, and have done pottery, but I am currently without a craft/art that energizes me and would love to learn more about needle felting. It really is lovely!

Wow, how nice!! Very beautiful!
It's funny.. I was thinking.. where have I seen something like this before…? Now I know: Tillo's breeder was also doing this :D :D -
That is adorable! I too would be interested in purchasing one!
As for your pup checking things out….I bought Shango a stuffed animal basenji that I found at a local petshop (its adorable and looks just like him!) he he does not like it….he looks at it apprehensively and will raise his fur....it's so funny!

Uhm, actually I do have some woolies for sale and am happy to do commissioned works, but I don't think we're allowed to sell things on this site? And I know there have been some problems with pm'ing. BUT I am the only Kim McNeill in Colorado in the BCOA membership roster. I'd be happy to put more information, but don't want to break any rules put forth by the admin's. It such a nice board they've created for us.
You can see some of my other woolies here:

the berner was a memorial piece and I used some of the departed's fur. I'm not sure that would work well with basenji hair, but i can match markings.As far as other works, go to etsy.com and put in "needle felted dog" or just "needle felted". There are lots of nice works on that site.
If you're interested in creating your own (and that's lots of fun!), try your local library or these links:

There are several ways of felting - knitting then felting, wet felting, machine felting and needle felting. Enjoy.
