How To
Needle Felted Fleece Sheep
A 16½" by 23" pieced sheep was made from felt. I used a Mccalls pattern.
Large dowels were placed in the legs for support and the body stuffed with fiber filler.
I bought a full fleece from a farm that keeps it's sheep banketed during the year to keep the fleece clean. I sperated individual locks from the fleece, washed them carefully then needle felted them on to the felt sheep individually.
