Then I needle felted the color and the feathers.


It’s the first time I’ve done something like this and it was great fun. It was very difficult to felt the movement and grace and it became rather “flat”. It looks more like a goose than a hawk but I´m pleased with it anyway. Not for it´s "hawk like perfection" but for another reason altogether. Molly Jean and her fabulous blog Creative life and times is a great inspiration for me and I’ve been wanting to try out some of her techniques for a while now. But not really dared. Stupid I know but her things are so beautiful !!!! But what I did today is a step in the right direction for me. You have to start somewhere and now I dare..... and I can’t wait to continue trying. To bad it’s a workday tomorrow !
