This book contains instructions for how to make a number of realistic dogs, using needlefelt techniques. Gai Button's clear step-by-step techniques are easy to follow, showing the reader how to make identifiable model dogs in a variety of pedigree breeds. The projects build on particular needlefelt techniques so that by the time you have finished the final dog, you will be able to apply the techniques to creating your own needlefelt designs.About the Author: Gai Button is a sculptural artist who works in needlefelt, clay and other media. With a creative mind and love of animals great and small, Gai used fur from her pet poodle to make her first little dogs before expanding her horizons to take in different wools, silks and fibres to make all manner of creatures. Gai's needle-felted dogs are in collections all around the world, and she has written a number of articles for both craft and dog enthusiast magazines. She holds craft workshops in her studio near the sea and demonstrates across the UK.
