Portland ewe

Size: 30x30cm. Since 2018, I have been needle felting my way through the Rare Breeds Survival Trust watchlist. 10% of rare breed sales goes to RBST. The Portland is classified as 'at risk' by the RBST. I used wet felting, needle felting and machine embroidery techniques with wool, silk and bamboo fibres to create this piece. It is framed and currently on display at the Woolclip in Caldbeck.
