The Valemount Legion put on a mini craft fair on Nov. 26th where half a dozen vendors had items for display. The legion also served a hot lunch and Santa was on hand to take requests from little ones.

Donna Hamilton has been needle felting for years, and her designs have gotten quite impressive as shown by this rabbit balanced as though in motion on a burl base. Hamilton says inside is a wire armature that keeps the figure intact. She wraps the felt around and “needles” it in place. The only visible part of the rabbit that isn’t wool are the whiskers which are made of horse hair. /LAURA KEIL
