4. wrap colour wool around the tail and use a fine needle felting needle to secure wool
5. connect body and tail with wool and needle,
6. add lace and embellishments,

Miss Gnome
Miss Gnome is a cute little project and adds a little more complexity to your needle felting skills. I really enjoyed working on this project because gnomes are so cute and mystical creatures. I loved to watch cartoons with gnomes when I was a child.

2. add a small ball for the nose,
3. add colour wool for the body,
4. add hair in the colour of your choice,
5. add colour wool for the hat,
