Hello everyone! I’ve another creature feature for you this week – and I’m surprised at how long it’s taken me to share this special Beastie pet with you! She’s a real cutie.
Hey there, Mini-Penelope!
This sweet little French bulldog pup was created to complete a Beastie family which I made a few years ago. Here’s the original trio…
They landed in their new home just in time to help their new human friends celebrate their wedding. However, that was ALLLLLL the way back in 2018! And with the arrival of Penelope (a cheeky lil’ French bulldog puppy) during last year’s lockdown, this family portrait needed an update!
So, I grabbed my needle-felting kit, and spent a good bit of time getting to know Penelope a little better. You can too! She and her sister Zoey have their own Instagram account.
And now here’s her Mini-Me!

And turn and smile for the camera, please.
Very nice.
Oh sorry, what’s that? You want to play Fetch?
Maybe the pens and pencils might be a bit big for you, don’t you think?
Oh. She looks disappointed. Hey, you can still climb on them! Endless hours of fun.
Who’s a good girl?
Thanks to Kristen for requesting this fun addition to her little family of woolly monsters!
And be sure to join us again next week, when we’ll be catching up with Paddy and Plunkett. I wonder where they’ve been for the last couple of weeks? See you then!
Love the Beastie Pet Shop! You did a wonderful job capturing their pups! The world just needs more Beastie Pets 🙂
Awww, thanks Tierney! I was so happy to add to this sweet Beastie family 😊 Cheers for popping by!
How on earth do you get so much expression into such a tiny ball of fluff?
Hahaha! Thank you, Queen Bee. The main ingredients are time and patience 😂 Fortunately needle-felting is insanely addictive so the main problem becomes knowing when to stop! Thanks for checking in 😊
Wow… your beastie pets are pretty fab!
Thank you, Simon! Any excuse to do a spot of needle-felting is fine by me 😁 Cheers for dropping in!
Incredible work, Helen! This mini-Penelope is a spitting image, and so amazingly life-like! I can see her happily reuniting with and enjoying her new Beastie parents. Of course the Beasties are a pet-loving bunch. 🙂
They certainly are, Shirley! And I’m happy that all my research into French bulldog anatomy seems to have paid off too – they’re a tricky shape, essentially their sweet little faces 😅 Thanks for stopping by!
Beyond beautiful. There is magic in your fingers
Oh wow, thank you Mariss! And thanks as always for dropping in to say hello 😊
