    I've never felted before but, I am glad this video popped up in my suggested list... Ironically koalas happen to be one of my favorite land animals.... Thank you all... I now have a new hobbie for my down time during this social distancing lock down....

    Caught up this evening. Lovely little fella. I had a small koala soft toy as a child. I’ve still got him. I’ll post mine when completed. Great video thanks Marie and the techno fairy.

    As an Aussie I thank you 💙🙏🏼💙 there are better charities to donate to. Big charities like WWF use a lot of money for administration. WIRES is a good start. Your Koala is super cute 🐨

    Hi. I'm new at this and am making the Koala head today - I have struggled with the size of the ears - I have made one and the shape is fine but it is too big - what is the best way to reduce the size or do I have to start again? Thank you xx

    • @LivingFelt

You are a fabulous teacher. Thank you. Just finished watching on You Tube so I can now turn on the live Wooly Wednesday for today
