Here's the needle felted Saxon I was talking about on your Facebook page:

It's made from a mix of alpaca and sheep wool that I bought from small farms. I'm not that great at needle felting and I don't know how to keep the fibers from sticking out yet. I bet I'll get better with practice, though!

Benny, you taught me so much in your life and death. Rest well, Sweet boy.

I can't even imagine having the talent it takes to do something like this. My older brother is a skilled artist and can draw, paint, sculpt, whatever and it comes out great every time. My sister, also older, has some artistic talent that she never really pursued. But the gene pool apparently ran dry at that point, as my younger brother and I can barely draw a credible triangle.
