@@dodosmamma1692 hello lovely, I think you may be confusing me for someone else? My name is Chantelle ☺️. But if it's my video that you're refering to, I don't usually sell armatures. But if you're UK based, please feel free to message my Facebook page and I can try to arrange something 🥰 m.facebook.com/FuzzieFiberArt/
What an excellent, well explained tutorial! I just started in January and this is the best I've found, AND you've made it simple and easy. Thank you, Chantelle, for sharing your process and for the diagrams on your FB page :) I can't wait to see what your latest mousey creations will be.
On the print out you gave (thank you) the measurement on the neck says 4.5 but I am holding a ruler next to it and it is measuring 3.6. It must not have printed to scale.
Hmm that's odd, I've just double checked the original drawing and it's definitely measuring 4.5cm. I wouldn't worry too much about the armature lining up perfectly with the guide, as long as the written measurements are correct 🥰
I am so bad at conversions. In USA what gauge is 1.25 mm thick? I'm looking at a wire conversion chart and it says 1.024mm is 18 gauge. The closest I see on the chart to to the 0.6 you use is 0.6426mm, which is equivalent to 22 gauge wire. There are different types and that makes a difference in how pliable they are. 22 gauge Aluminum is more pliable (and less sturdy) as steel 20 gauge wire.
Hello! I'm afraid I'm not so great at conversions myself 🙈. But the gauges you mentioned do sound correct. The body and legs should be strong/sturdy. The smaller wire (0.6) is just used for the toes and tail and isn't a strong as the other wire. 🥰
Hello! In this video I'm using a 38 gauge star needle. I also often use a 36 gauge triangular for core wool too 😊. The core wool is mixed breed slivers from simplyfelting.co.uk 💜
Thank you! 🥰 I do sell PDF's, but I'm relatively new to creating them so only have two available at the moment. They can both be found on my Etsy ❤️ fuzziefiberart.etsy.com
Hello, the core wool is wool that is more coarse and felts really easily. It's used to build up the main shapes of the body as its also typically cheaper to purchase ☺️. The core wool used in this video is from "Simply Felting" ❤️
I’m quite new to needle felting, but I had a go at copying your mouse, though I didn’t have the exact wools. I found it very tricky, and I’m not sure I want to tackle another one at the moment. I think I need more practice on simpler animals. Good tutorial.Thankyou x
Ahh I'd definitely recommend working on some more simple pieces first, learning the basic shapes and simple armatures ☺️. I wish you all the best on your felting journey and I really hope you enjoy the craft! Xx
I’ve watched just about every felted mouse video I could find and I really love your little mice. Thank you for posting such a great tutorial! Gonna make a mouse today.
They're so adorable! I need to make a brown bear for a miniature project I am working on, and buying one pre-made is waaaay out of my price range. So I am hoping to learn to needle felt so I can have my bear. Very good tutorial. Answers many of my questions. Thank you!
All your videos are not only a joy to watch but also a great inspiration. You are a wonderful teacher! Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful talent!❤
These 3 tutorials are fantastic. I love the way you have explained and shown everything in so much detail. You are very talented. I'll definitely be watching more of your videos ❤
I've watched many mouse tutorials and this is by far the BEST! I love that you are so clear in all of your directions. It's great that this little mouse can lay down, sit up or stand. Exactly what I was looking for!! Thank you! Can't wait to try this.
You really have a knack for making shapes and using them to form the sheep. For examples, the triangles to finish out the back legs. Fantastic! Well done
You are the absolute best!!! Not only are you so very talented but you are such a great teacher and you have such an adorable personality! It's truly a joy to watch your videos! So glad I found you!
This came out simply beautiful! It is exactly what I needed to make a sheep. I love all the details you added and closeup shots where needed. Thanks for sharing.🐑
