Needle Felted Sheep

I'm very new to needle felting, but I love it, and I need to practice more.  Today, whilst my kids reclined on the sofa, trying to kick their temperatures and coughs, I punched some super sharp needles into some washed raw fleece (gotta remember to watch those fingers!).  I used washed kid mohair curls for the sheep's 'fleece', which was tricky, as you had to punch them for some time to get them to stick, but the result is fab!

I'm hoping to take a bunch of these to Bendigo with me, to sell on the Spun Out Stall and I may even use some dyed kid mohair locks on the odd one or two!
