I needle felted this little fox from wools and wool batting.  I felted him around a wire armature and attached him to his driftwood plinth, in a jaunty pose, trotting along, lively and inquisitive.  I blended the colours to make his coat and tail realistic and added horse hair whiskers to his face.  The length of the whole piece is 11 inches (28 cms)  Height is 5 inches (12.5 cms)  The fox itself is 6 and a half inches (16.5 cms) long from nose to tip of tail.  I took a long time to get his construction and appearance as I wanted him to look.  Needle felting is a slow, methodical but satisfying process!  He is an ideal gift that will adorn a desk, a shelf, an office.  He is not a toy to be played with.
