First felting- Horatio Hippo!

[cathieb]

Isn't he cute? I know he's not perfect, but this little guy was the result of my first attempt at needle felting. I'm quite proud of him, and he's now at the home of Feline2001, my Make a Friend Swap partner. I'm a bit jealous.



This one, you can just about see his little tail. I'm pretty sure I could've done a much better job of that.


 Another side view. You can see how he's a bit squarer on one side than the other...



I'd like to try this again some time, but I was limited by the availability of tools at my local hobbycraft. I definitely want to try it with different roving - and I was amazed at how easy it was to get started!!


C&C appreciated.
