Hello! My wing wires were each 4 inches long. I apologize for not making that clear. I included it in my blog post but must not have said it clearly in the video. If you need any other steps as you're working, here's the link to the post: theneedlefelter.com/just-in-time-for-spring-hummingbird-video-tutorial-and-free-pdf-pattern/ Again, I'm so sorry for not being clear. I hope this helps.

Thank you for the sweet compliment! I started by buying an all-in-one kit on Amazon that made one animal (the one I picked up was the Dimensions Fox ). It was less expensive than buying things individually. It also gave me the opportunity to see if I liked needle felting. I'm not sure where you are located so an inexpensive kit where I am might be expensive for you with shipping. But I'd look for one that includes wool, at least two felting needles (in case one breaks), a mat or pad to melt on, and a video or printed instructions. The fox kit I bought also included a pattern that showed the sizes the pieces should be. I found that very helpful. My only problem with the Dimensions Fox kit specifically was that it didn't include enough orange wool to make the fox the size it showed unless you made the fox squishy instead of felting it a little firm. I ended up buying one of those needle felting starter kits (also on Amazon) that had small amounts of merino wool in about 20 colors. The starter kit only had wool, nothing else. Luckily, it had an orange wool that worked great with my little Dimensions Fox! It worked out and I had the extra wool from the starter kit to play with. There are lots of kits of Amazon but I also love Felted Sky's mini kits ( feltedsky.com/collections/mini-kits ). They have a variety of things to make, great quality needles, and give you plenty of wool. You could also look at Sarafina Fiber Art's Level One kits (they all have free KZbin video tutorials you can watch before you buy anything www.sarafinafiberart.com/pages/tutorial-series ). I'm not sponsored by either of these companies but I have purchased many times from both. I hope this helps. f you have any questions, just let me know.

This is beautiful but what is the size of the bird?
@the-needle-felter
@the-needle-felter 2 ай бұрын
Hello! Viewed from the side (tip of the beak to the outermost tip of the wings), the hummingbird is approximately 4 1/4 inches wide by 3 1/4 inches tall. If you're looking for just the body measurement, from the top of the head to the tip of the tail, it is 3 3/4 inches long. I hope this helps.

Thank you! I appreciate your kind words. I use a 40 gauge twist or spiral needle to achieve a smooth surface. I tend to attach the wool with a 38 gauge star needle. Then, I go back over it with the 40 gauge twist to refine the surface. I hope this helps.

Thank you! I apologize for the delay in responding. I don't have a specific video on this armature as I learned if from Sara Renzulli of Sarafina Fiber Arts. She uses a form of this armature in many of her animals. Here's a link to her fox project which uses it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rarHf5Sfra-bhpY She does have an older video that is only about the armature and gives lots of tips. Here's the link to that: kzbin.info/www/bejne/haW5e6p9o8yibdU I hope these help!

So sorry for the delay in replying. I had the Kiwi Bird packed away and needed to bring it back out to measure it. I did not follow a specific scale for the bird. The final size of is 5 3/8" tall, 8" long from tail to beak, and 3 1/4" wide. I hope this helps.

It's my pleasure! Woodland and wild animals have my heart. Thank you for your feedback on breaking down the process this way. I will work on doing that more. I hope you enjoy making your animals. And don't worry if it takes time. This was the third Fennec Fox I made. The first two weren't working. But I really wanted to make one. So I didn't give up. :)

Thank you! It doesn't smell like vinegar at all. I washed it in the Unicorn Power Scour so it smells really fresh and clean. Rebecca from Chemknits usually washes the wool with clear dishwashing liquid. I think any soap that's safe for wool would work. I just had the Power Scour on hand because I needed it for a lamb fleece and some raw wool I bought a while back.

You might try pulling some of the wool off. I will sometimes put a thin layer down first, almost a transparent veil. And then I'll add another layer over that leaving the edges of the first layer to soften the transition between the two colors. You can also try leaving the edges of the belly color a little feathery instead of a sharp or straight edge. That would help soften the edge. Don't be discouraged as it takes a little practice. And the good thing is that you can remove some wool, place and felt a thin layer back over that spot, and no one will notice that you made a change. Wool is very forgiving. I hope this helps.

That's very helpful! I haven't tried the technique again because my feathers were prone to cracking if they were accidentally bent. I could sort of fix it by applying heat with a blow dryer. They are beautiful but I worry they would be damaged if I tried to ship a bird with them. I'm still glad I tried it though.
