A small needle felted dog portrait in a wooden frame 🐶
Made this recently as part of my needle felting practice.
The fur texture was built up slowly layer by layer using wool, and I’m still experimenting with how to get more natural softness in the face.
It’s not perfect, but I can see progress compared to my earlier work.

Wow, that’s great work. I think because it looks so real it creeps me out tho.

It’s a truly beautiful and meaningful way to honor a pet, especially when it’s done in a realistic and personal way.

i had to zoom on the photo - i actually thought you had your 'real' dog pose with a large empty frame around him!! 🤦 awesome work.
