Needle Felted Cthulhu

This is my latest Needle felt. If you do not know Cthulhu he comes from the imagination and stories of H.P. Lovecraft. It was Simon that gave me the idea a while back but it was before I knew that I was actually pretty good at felting. He seemed a bit daunting at first.

After I made the mushroom house and the other sets though I knew that I could make him. So I started him in June before going to the “We Shine” gathering and  then put him on hold while a I made things for the gathering. I brought him to the Shine gathering and worked on him a bit there which drew some interest but then with the bus, and summer, he stayed uncompleted.

I finally came around to taking the time to finish him last week shaping his head more, giving him eyes and wings and completing the details that make him seem to come to life. He stands about 6 inches high and has a bit of wire in his wings to help keep shape…
