I thoroughly enjoyed making Harriet Hare from the Henry and Harriet Hare Felts by Philippa tutorial. If you've never seen one, watching a Pippa Thorpe video is like having your best more experienced needle felting friend sat next to you gently guiding and encouraging you while you work. I'm over the moon with how my hare turned out

I’ve only been felting for a short while and thought these two hares would stretch me and help me to progress - and I was right. The videos are very thorough and tell you everything you need to know. I’ve finished Henry and I’m half way through Harriet and I’m so pleased with what I’ve been able to create. I’d recommend this course to beginners and those who are more experienced because you can follow Philippa and decide if you want to make small changes, to the paws for instance.
