Happy Easter to all y’all, and happy birthday to my tumblr blog! Weird coincidence, I know. I don’t remember making it on Easter, but here we are
Better late than never to start sketching a sona for this blog though, so they may be seen sometime in the near future :3
Part 2 of a felted penguin tutorial
When you are done making the base shape, it should look a little like this. Make sure to focus on the upper half to make the neck more prominent.
Next up is the white belly. Keep in mind this step can be skipped if you’re sure that clothing will cover it up, but I do it anyway in case the clothing fits differently than I originally thought. This is also where I switched from my bigger needle to my medium needle.
Either way, make sure to cut/tear a small bit of white felt to set aside for the eyes.
Place a bit of the white felt on the front of the penguin (you can add more if some of the base still shows underneath), shaping it as you tighten it. Be sure to keep it below the neck to leave room for the beak, and to get it as flat as possible.
If you accidentally tighten it in the wrong spot, you should be able to nudge back into place with your needle, or pull that spot out with your fingernails to start over.
Now’s where we work on the flippers. You can always just add on the felt as is to the sides of the penguin, like I did with Rookie, but I’ll show how I make the flatter flippers anyway.
You can use anything as a mold, feel free to get creative with it! For my flippers, I use this spot of a paw print mold.
Another part coming… bear with me here!

hang on I’m trying to see something
don’t tell me the name of your pet, just tell me in the tags the name you call them that’s got nothing to do with their actual name

Your honor, he’s an asshole
The day I started posting about #rats was the best day of my life.
technically still his birthday, so have this last minute b-day drawing Rookie! And the cupcake. And... the wrapper, I guess
