My Westie was my best friend and I loved to groom him.
Every time I groomed my Westie I kept the fur. He had the thickest coat and it was a beautiful silver white.
Each Westie wool needle felted sculpture is unique. All are done by hand using needles with little barbs on them and clean, washed wool, in many colors.
I use wool from New Zealand with its long fibers and silky touch for finishing work and fine detail work.
My Needle Felted Westies are created from pictures you provide or I can take some photos for you in the San Francisco Bay Area for $15.00 (transportation costs).
I like to see the body of the Westie from many angles so that I can create a beautiful needle felting Westie wool sculpture that will truly do justice to your West Highland white Terrier.
It takes about 16 hours to make one medium size wool sculpture.
I love the Terrier attitude and the fact that they do not shed. They are perfect for any home, whether it be a condo or a home with a yard.
Prices:
Small Needle Felting dog $25.00
Medium Needle Felting dog $39.00
Large Needle Felting dog $60.00
We all know that Wesies are different looking among the breed. Non Westie fanciers can not tell the difference but there are tall Westies as well as short legged Westies. There are Westies with big eyes and Westies with smaller eyes. Some even have brown noses!
Here are some of my Westie personalities.
Spooky!
Spooky loved to lay just like this.
Sometimes he would have one knee up in the back but loved to lay on the floor just like this. This needle felted West Highland White Terrier is the large size
Here is a needle felted Westie Girl Elle. Her size is medium.

I had always planned on keeping the fur and doing something with it but life got complicated and my boy died. I was devastated when he died but I had his fur and I would hold it and his toys. It helped a tiny bit and then I found needle felting dogs. I’ve been needle felting dogs since then. Order your own needle felting dog now.
