This is great help, thank you! My sister asked me to make two doves for her for a wedding decoration near her cake, and I’m hoping I can use these techniques to get a really nice finish! I’ve made a small rabbit and a fox so far which came out well, but I want to make these look really good!
This is perfect as mine started off with a dove like tail which is really simple. If you email me I can send a photo: info@lincolnshirefenncrafts.com :)
Thanks so much and glad you are enjoying them. I have a lot of US customers but post costs can be an issue; around 14 dollars. Do you have someone more local you could use? :)
Ha!! I have just heard your comment about the item not looking like the finished article when you are working....that is exactly my problem...I'm trying to make my 'thing' look like it should end up, instead of just creating the base shape. Love watching your tutorials....very calming. We are only just [finally] getting straight after the house fire, and then in Jan., the bushfire going thru the place, so I am just itching to begin to play with my wool. I daren't get it out yet, as all the clean and repainting in here will stop dead!!
Oh Nancy, you have had the worst year ever. I am just so glad that you are all safe. Sending you my very best wishes for Easter, but more importantly, for a much improved, and creative year. Stay safe. xx
@@thefelthub Umm. yes...been a funny old year. Now the regeneration has begun, and black "dead" trees, and sending out brilliant green leaves....absolutely amazing. We now actually have enough grass to mow....yay!! I love the coronation chook, AND that gorgeous corgi. ....Speaking of which, I have just had an urgent commission for a pastel portrait of a corgi, to go to NZ...and I couldn't find any of my pastel art pads....packed somewhere. We had to drive 100kms to the nearest big town on Easter Saturday, to try to find an art shop open. [you can imagine how well that went!] Managed to find the only one in captivity, and the portrait left yesterday. Phew! Thanks for replying. xx
I have really enjoyed your video! You are a great teacher and I enjoy your humor added as well. Ok, back to working on my last layer. 😊

I love your tutorials! My sister and I just completed the hare tutorial. Sure wish we could purchase your kits but we are in the U.S.

where is the video for the wings and the head and tail feathers? can't find it, I love your videos.
It is in the chicken playlist :)
So to get rid of the fuzzy stray hairs your needle on an angle?
Using your needle diagonally is one way. You can also trim any stray hairs with sharp scissors. :)
