Where did you learn this craft?? I do a lot of needle work and would love to learn! It is so cute! Isn't Zest just so helpful? At least he didn't grab it and run like mine would have!

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.
