Hi everyone. For those of you that have been wondering where I have been, I am still here. I have not fallen off the face of the earth. I’ve been a bit busy at work; travel and lots of extra hours.
I have all kinds of news. The family for which I made the needle felted cat just loves him. I was very happy and relieved that she loved him so much. This was my first commissioned piece so I wanted to do my best. She did say that the real Mulder was an 18 lb. kitty so this one is about ¼ scale. So for those of you that expressed an interest in him if he was not wanted, you will have to wait until next time. I did receive some photos so once I get them scanned I will post photos of Mulder.
I’ve been working on mohair bears; 5 in this batch. I’ve included the head of the
first one. I’ve started crossover my hobbies as this guy/girl has a needle felted nose. I won’t know what sex this bear will be until it is finished, then I turn it over to Sue, my wife, since her job is to name them.
Another promoter has picked up the May bear show in Albuquerque. She does Doll and Teddy Bear Show in several cities in the West and decided to pick up this one with the other promoter deciding to stop. I did her Doll and Bear Show this past November and was happy with the attendance as well as adopting out some bears.
Once I get these bears completed I will jump back into needle felting more animals.
Thank you for stopping by, I’ll try and be a bit more prompt next time.

Hi Mark
ReplyDeleteThis bear is incredible. I love his face so much. (HE?) Well, I usually prefer my fur babies to be boys. BTW, your posts are well worth the wait. Glad the show will continue.
