Fiber Friends are tiny critters and corgis hand needle-felted from all natural wool. Lifelike yet whimsical, Fiber Friends are a blend of my illustrative style and realistic portraiture – the likeness to their “big” friends is uncanny! They make me giggle and I think they play around my studio when i’m not looking.  I specialize in custom orders and am especially honored to create commemorative pieces for beloved pets gone on to the rainbow bridge. Pocket is my muse and ambassador and the real driving force behind what i do.

  13. Elaine Birch

    My corgi goes crazy over ham, though she rarely gets it.

  14. Virginia Rudloff

    Sweet!

  15. Linda

    Spanky love to lie on his back next to the wall with his legs propped up against the wall, or he will lie with his head propped against the wall or a door as a pillow.

  16. Taylor Greve

    I don’t have a corgi, unfortunately, but my favorite corgi pose is the sploot!

  17. Debora

    Your work is beautiful! I love corgis and have a small collection of handmade sheep figures that began with a wool and wire sheep in 1969. I have my eye on your black sheep gathering!!!!

  18. Debora

    Love your work, have subscribed to your blog via email, and I sure hope to win the give-away!

  19. sheryle bleashka

    my corgi gingers favorite sleeping position is flat on her side. she’ll just be walking and flop down on her side and take a nap! i love when she lays with her back feet splayed out behind her though :)

  20. Lana

    Would love to win the Corgi giveaway! Our Corgi sleeps on his side too! It’s like someone just pushed him over on his side!

  21. Heather McCloy

    My Reilly’s favorite snacks are hotdogs and Dairy Queen Blizzards, and he always sleeps in the crook of his Daddy’s arm, on his back with paws splayed wide, snoring like a freight train – like Father, like Son!

  22. Melanie

    My corgi Morty’s favorite snack is… Well, anything! I call his favorite sleeping position “the croissant” because he curls up just like a crescent roll.

  23. Christie vickers

    My corgi, Sugar, dances when she wants a cookie/treat! She also loves to “high five” everyone. When she sleeps she sleeps on her back with all four legs in the air and her head hanging off of the chair with her mouth wide open and tongue flopped out!

  24. Jessie

    I would love to be the winner of the Corgi contest! Whenever Alwyn wants a homemade sweet potato chew, he bounces between two tricks – he’ll start with a “sushi roll” and then stand on his legs and walk towards us (we call it “circus bear”) and then spin. It’s the cutest thing when he gets overly excited! =)

  25. Liz K

    I would LOVE to win a tiny pocket corgi! My girl Moose LOVES to snack on Lettuce and Popcorn :) yayyyy

  26. Kelly

    My corgi’s favorite way to sleep is the classic sploot position. That would be an awesome pose for one of these felties! :)

  27. Susan

    Love the corgi! Wish I could post my corgi puppy Copper John’s picture in his ‘frog dog’ pose–you could see his resemblance to your latest creation! I’ve just seen your illustration work–you’re such a talented artist. I adore children’s book illustrations, even though I don’t have children of my own.

  28. Betsy

    Love the tiny corgi’s! So perfect for my desk!

  29. Holly

    Would love to win the corgi! Super cute. :)

  31. Susan

    Your work is wonderful and I hope that I win the prize! woohoo

  32. Amazing work, I investigated needlefelting because of you, and am thoroughly in awe! (and I’d love to win the corgi)

  33. Debby

    I would LOVE to win the felted corgi, he/she is adorable. I really love your other work as well… I might have to get my friend a couple of llamas from you. :)

  34. sandy grambort

  35. Nice artidle. Looking forward to read more from your blog.

  36. Amy

    Very cute fiber animals! I love that they are so realistic! I raise goats in Eugene! I have Saanen, Nigerians, and some mixed breeds. We raise for milk and meat.

  37. These tiny puppies are adorable! I bet my niece would love these mobiles, since she likes dogs but can’t have one (allergies).

    Hi, Miranda!

    I love corgis, and I have loved your work for years. I do some wool felting, so I was really interested to see your process. I noticed in the article you had a nice, thick block of what looked like closed-cell foam to do your felting on. Is that still what you use? Can you remember where you got it, by any chance?

    Thanks, and keep up the smashing work,
    Kate
