Attention class, please make Laney feel welcome!

Hi Everyone!
Well the giveaway is now closed, I hope to collate everyones entries and make the drawing before the end of the week so stay tuned for that! In the mean time please meet the gorgeous little ballet student I created for my daughters ballet teacher!



Laney is wearing her correct dance uniform of burgandy leotard, pink socks and ballet slippers! Her hair is in a neat bun with a burgandy ribbon. She stands on her wooden dance floor, just like the real one!
She was needle felted over many, many hours in corriedale and merino wools


Her hair is a gorgeous merino/silk fibre with a soft fringe.
Just look at her little pink cheeks!


Here you can see her little bun, her feet are in 'first position' so her legs are jointed in a unique way as this position requires her heels to meet!


Laney can also do the splits!

She is over 4 inches tall and probably my most ambitious works for a long time!
I hope you enjoyed meeting her as much as her teacher is enjoying having her in class! lol
