"This artist will create a miniature felt version of your pet, but the waitlist is 3 months long"
Owners love remembering the good times they've had with their pets, whether that's taking selfies together or even buying a miniature felt version of them, as Alyson Gurney found out.
Gurney, a 23-year-old artist from Washington, DC, picked up needle felting after coming across it on Instagram. The medium uses needles to craft wool into different shapes and structures. She started by sculpting a miniature version of her dog, Drift, a Carolina/husky-mix rescue.
"He was definitely the inspiration behind the whole thing," Gurney told Insider.
Before long, Gurney was crafting models of her friends' dogs, and her passion quickly turned from a hobby into a full-fledged business. She now runs Little Felted Friends, a service where owners can get teeny versions of their pets made."
