  • Blue bird

    These slightly silly wee birds certainly make my heart sing. I use new and antique fabrics, all hand stitched together. The beaks I whittle from wood and the legs are made from florist wire. After the bird is stitched together I then do free form stitching over the surface. No two birds are the same.
