I was suddenly struck the other day when I saw this image on Flickr of a soft bird with looped ribbon tail feathers that I could make wings for my birds with loops of torn fabric. When I was making horses I made the manes and the tails by sewing together loops made from torn…
Pincusions
I found two pristine hand-cast pewter cups at a church rummage sale a few weekends ago and I couldn't pass them up because I knew they would make really lovely pincushions. Last night I had some time to myself so I pulled out the big box of pink vintage fabric (it's a big box, trust…
"Porthole"(box is 9" tall and bird adds another 6") A new mixed media shadow box. The inside is three separate compartments with vintage wooden spools of thread, wooden rings, a painted wooden ball, and various papers. Perched above is a bird soft sculpture holding the tail end of thread from a wooden spool in her…
a new owl, Hawaii style
Okay, so here is the amazing yard of fabric I found a week and a half ago at a church rummage sale. It was buried under lots of old plaid flannel and other yucko stuff and I couldn’t believe it when I pulled this out. "From Hawaii with Aloha" and look at those ’70’s lovers. …

animal
I was possessed by some kind of footloose and fancy free mood yesterday evening and made this animal. He says hello to you. He will be part of mid-May shop update. Thank you to everyone who recommended Google Reader. I have officially said good-bye to Kinja, the switch over is complete, and I’m in love. …
a little flock
I finished the bird in the middle this morning. He is all neutrals and very mod. These three are like a little flock now. We gave Stella a Cotton Monster for her birthday and it is such an amazing toy. His mouth is a big pocket for all your treasures and it is just so…
birds and a birthday
I finished a second bird with a crimson breast this morning. These two look very fine together, I think. I have been putting a lot of thought into my Etsy shop this week. I am hoping to give it some major attention over the summer, with bigger, scheduled updates. The first will be in early…
