Tweed the cat

Some months ago, I received a custom order for a pet memorial of this lovely, lovely fellow:

It was an honor to make such a meaningful piece. I needle felted wool over a pipe cleaner armature, used small glass eyes, and made the whiskers from fishing line glued in place with superglue.

I was told he had a funny habit of sitting on top of vases and pots. What a silly!

If you would like to see some of the process that went into making this needle felted oddling, wander over to my Patreon page where I show many, many photos of the different stages and changes I made as I worked:
