Introduction to Needle Felting as a Needle Felting Beginner
As a lifelong dog lover, I’ve always had a soft spot for our furry friends. From my mischievous Dalmatian, Paddy, who once took an unexpected train ride, to my playful German Shorthaired Pointers, Dolly and Daisy, dogs have brought endless joy and laughter to my life. It’s no surprise that I wanted to create something special that celebrates our beloved canine companions with my beginners needle felted Labrador dog kit.

Dolly & Daisy – The Pointer Sisters
When I design needle felting kits, I always keep my customers’ preferences in mind. However, I also have to be passionate about the design myself. Combining my love for dogs and the fascinating art of needle felting, I set out to create a range of needle felting kits that would not only appeal to people but also introduce them to the meditative and awe-inspiring process of needle felting. You can find my range of kits here.
The Inspiration Behind the Needle Felted Labrador Dog Kit
One of the needle felting kits I designed is the needle felted Labrador dog, following the success of my needle felted Dachshund dog kit. Both breeds are incredibly popular, and as a dog enthusiast, I couldn’t resist bringing them to life through needle felting.
Crafting the Perfect Needle Felting Kit
Designing a needle felting kit involves extensive research, gathering reference photos, and deciding on the perfect pose for the needle felted animal. Sometimes, I sketch out the design, while other times, I dive right into the creative process, experimenting with different approaches. Throughout this journey, I always strive to strike a balance between complexity and appeal, ensuring that both needle felting beginners and experienced felters can enjoy the needle felting kits.
While some may initially find my needle felting kits slightly complex for needle felting beginners, I firmly believe that with my comprehensive step-by-step instructions and accompanying photos for each stage, needle felting beginners can easily achieve remarkable results.

Comprehensive Instructions for Needle Felting beginner Success
I’ve made it a priority for my needle felting instructions to be as thorough as possible. Having experienced the frustration of vague instructions during my own learning process, I wanted to provide clarity and guidance to fellow felters. The feedback I’ve received from many individuals confirms that my needle felting instructions have been instrumental in helping them create beautiful animals.
From the initial design to the final needle felting kit, the process takes many hours of dedication and meticulous work. After deciding on the design, I remake it while simultaneously documenting the process through detailed instructions and photographs, ensuring that the instructions are visually appealing and easy to follow.
Sustainability and Quality
Sustainability is important to me, so I make a conscious effort to source materials and use eco-friendly packaging whenever possible. Each kit is lovingly packed by hand, maintaining the integrity and quality of the contents.
Sharing Needle Felting Knowledge and Inspiring Creativity
One of the most fulfilling aspects of my work is sharing my knowledge and inspiring creativity in others. I firmly believe that everyone has a creative spark within them, and I want to help individuals realise their potential and experience the incredible mental health and well-being benefits that creativity can bring. My needle felting kits serve as a platform for me to pass on this knowledge and encourage people to embrace their artistic side. Engaging with people throughout the process and witnessing their amazing results brings me immense joy.

Let me share some feedback from one of my customers who recently completed the needle felted Labrador dog kit:
I did the Labrador kit today; I really enjoyed the experience it was fun to do. The instructions were spot on they made complete sense to me and the photos were great as I am a visual learner and referred to them as I went along.
The project flowed and I had no problems at all, I was in “the zone” throughout. I would recommend this kit to anyone, especially anyone who loves dogs; Labradors in particular.
Safe to say the whole kit, instructions and process were perfect.
