A Thelwell-inspired wool sculpture of a little girl and her pony jumping a fence. Made with a wire armature and completely needlefelted by hand with wool and special needles over many, many days.
 
Needlefelting is a fascinating craft, there is a lot planning goes into my sculptures and it very different building something from the inside out - at one time the poor pony resembled a roast chicken and, from certain angles, it still does!
 
I love this sculpture so much I'd really rather it wasn't sold! But if you promise you will look after them ...
