Woodland Santa is my latest needle felting project.
I love his curly beard!
I started in the spring, but couldn't muster the desire to needle felt
in summer's 90 degree temps.
So as the weather cooled down last week, I finished the tree and put it all together.
Even with learning curves and a few broken needles, I enjoyed the process.
One thing I learned is to use a lighter hand and not punch the needle so hard.
Smaller jabs meant less broken needles and less frustration.
Needle felting is a satisfying craft.
There is no such thing as perfection.
Each piece is unique.
The process relieves stress.
