Maybe I should sneak them into my real piggies cages and see if I fool them!

Love love love them. So cute I could cry.

Silly question.. is wool the only material that can be used? Could a synthetic material be used?

Thank you! I think there are acrylic and bamboo fibres that you can use but I haven't tried them. I remember watching a YouTube video on vegan alternatives.

I saw this little fella on the Gertie's Lonely Guinea Pig Rescue Facebook group and just had to felt him. His name is Popeye. Such a floof!

I know these good as I like the little bottoms as much as their little faces. Well done

These are wonderful. I would love to learn this. What are the basics you need to start?

Great idea

My latest little floof. This was a memorial commission to commemorate Brucey who passed away last year. I had to figure out how to create a crest but really pleased with the result.

I will do! I had thought about it but chickened out.

 

[Bill & Ted]

Oh yes, you really should, they are amazing!

Do it. Do it. Do it.

 

[MildredMaudeandEnid]

Do it. Do it. Do it.

Done this morning!

Let's see if I find my fame!

 

[MildredMaudeandEnid]

My god! They're reproducing faster than real guinea pigs! This is Belle, sister of other rainbow piggy, Sebastian. She's my first go at an abyssinian.

Ali is busy with the next issue. I will pluck up the courage and stupidity to enter Her office and see if she got them.

Thank you! Let me know what she thinks!

 

[Guinea Pig Magazine]

She's very impressed.

 

[Merab]

I’m not surprised - they are very good

 

[MildredMaudeandEnid]

I made Belle her very own needle felted rainbow. Got the colours the wrong way round...oops! But Belle reckons all rainbows are back to front on her planet.

I think I may have accidentally created a 70s kid's TV show.

 

[MildredMaudeandEnid]

And another one. They just keep breeding when my back is turned! This is Ernie the abyssinian.

 

[MildredMaudeandEnid]

So I opened my Etsy shop last night and made my first sale. Ernie and Edith are off to their new home in Canada! I'm an international business woman now.

When have you got time to do more commissions? I have a picture of a very much loved bunny called Albie that went to the Rainbow Bridge a few years ago who was my Goddaughters that I'd like you to make as a surprise for her.

I'm booked until the end of May at the moment so it will probably be the summer before I'm taking any more commissions.

I'll be posting things I make on my Etsy from time to time if you want to keep an eye on that.

I do have a bunny on there at the moment but I might try a rainbow one at some point since I've done my Rainbow piggies.

Unfortunately I just can't keep up with demand right now. I didn't expect them to be so popular.

Thanks but it def needs to be Alfie. Have looked at the bunny but it's nothing like Albie. Have just added your Etsy store to my favourites.

If you need it sooner I can ask around. I'm part of a felting community and lots of people do commissions. Have you got a photo of him I can show them? Or are you happy to wait for me?
