Hi  :wave:

I`ve finished Fergus ............  :o ;D :goat:

He took a bit of doing!!!, and I did cheat a bit by using some cattle hair for his coat- which I think makes him look more Billyish! ( O H had just trimmed the backs on some fattening cattle! :cow:)

Got Fergus to pose for you on a log----



I put some  thin wire in his legs and horns to help to hold their shape-  but other than that all just felted wool.

Tilly  ::) :wave:

..... well at least Fregus does not have that smell I have in my memory of Billy`s ! :-\ ;)

I really am enjoying the needle felting, i think it suits me as their are no patterns or rules to follow! -- just get some raw fleece needles a piece of foam to work on and off you go !.........

You have an amazing talent Tilly - it is like you are injecting their personality in as you make them! the character in Fergus's face reminds me so much of my Reggie  :)  absolutely stunning!!
