Here's what I was hinting at in my last submission - she's not just a bone dragon, she's a Day of the Dead bone dragon! I have always loved the themes and motifs associated with the Mexican Dнa de Muertos and have been wanting to make something themed around it for a couple of years now. I was originally planning to make a sugar skull dragon, but I ended up going with flowers instead. I've taken to calling this dragon Camellia, and she has a felt rose tucked under one horn, while another sprouts from the end of her tail. I also hand cut a couple dozen flowers out of felt and stitched them down the length of her body and across her wings (the flower centers are gold seed beads). Bright and colorful, just the way I like it! xD

Here are some extra angles:


Camellia is approximately 7 inches long and 4 inches tall. Created via needle felting from wool roving, with a pipe-cleaner armature. I think this entire project took somewhere around 9-10 hours. So much fun, and so very time consuming!

I have put Camellia up for sale in my Etsy shop. No idea if anyone will want her at that price, but that's okay, I am happy to continue enjoying her presence.

More felted fun
