Needle Felted Cat Head – Short Fur Tutorial

Posted on May 23, 2022 by Amanda Adebisi

Are you needle felting a cat with short fur? or a long haired cat that has shorter furred areas?

This is part two in my series of Needle Felted Cat Head tutorials as demonstrated on a Tabby Birman sculpture!

I’ll teach you how to blend colours by layering wool and reverse felting. There’s also some planting of longer strands and trimming…

You’ll be adding short fur to the bridge of the nose, the cheeks, whisker pads, chin and around the eyes. I’ll also share my technique for whisker dots

So here is the video on needle felting short fur:

Posted on May 4, 2022 by Amanda Adebisi

I’ve found that Needle felting a cat head really doesn’t need to be hard if you break it down into stages, have a plan and are patient with yourself and the process.

Following on from the time lapse video of the cat head process, this is Part One in the series of actual tutorials. Here I slow the footage down and demonstrate how I Needle Felted the ‘Cat Head Shape’ from core wool.

You are just 10 steps away from creating your own!. I hope you enjoy it!

NEEDLE FELTED CAT HEAD (Time lapse) 🐱

Needle felting a cat head doesn’t need to be hard. Does it? ……no…..It just takes a little practice and patience

Here I reveal the amazing process of creating a needle felted cat head.

I videoed how I made the tabby Birman cat head for my cat head tutorials but as I’ve been poorly and my throat far too sore to record any instructions I thought I’d initially create a time lapse of all the footage. Hours of needle felting sped up to less than 14 minutes!

I don’t know about you but I found it quite fun and relaxing to watch it all back! I hope you enjoy seeing the process and I hope it inspires you to have a stab at making your own cat
