I needle felted this Skull out of wool roving that I washed and carded myself. I needle felted some of the designs, and embroidered the rest with floss and crewel yarn. The heart is silk ribbon embroidery. The flowers in the eyes are tiny ombred french silk millinery flowers that I am obsessed with making by hand start to finish. The under sculpt is foam. Loved this project! Can't wait to do more.

Absolutely LOVE this. I love that the skull is felted. Texture makes it much more interesting. Your embroidery is spot on too.
