Needle Felted Horse-Wonderful Wednesday Finds


One of the things I have recently added to my collection of favorites is this amazing handmade needle felted horse.

Teresa makes her needle felted pieces from the wool of her very own Romney Sheep.

This is a very fascinating process that takes hours of work!
