Feather your nest with this avian collection of easy sewing
patterns for beautiful bird designs, all made using simple
hand-sewing techniques. Featuring the most popular and distinctive
species - including garden birds, exotic birds, birds of prey,
water birds, flightless birds and more - each pattern wings its way
to you with step-by-step instructions and full-size templates,
making them perfect for all abilities. The finished little birdies
would make cute brooches, bag charms and home accessories, or can
even be scaled up to make bigger plushes, all of which will make
your friends into avid twitchers! Author Alison J Reid has spent
months brooding away in her studio, researching all different kinds
of birds, both common and rare. She has checked out their shapes,
plumage and markings, and spent so much time trying to perfect
their colourful, beautiful wings. It became an obsession! It was
only by researching the various details that make each breed so
distinctive, that Alison has been able to capture each of their
unique qualities and differences. Pattern, colour and shape are
key, so capturing these details in felt was important. Luckily,
there are so many different colours of felt available! Felt's
non-fraying, double sided, robust qualities make it easy to create
all the little details that make each bird design so unique and
instantly recognisable. Each bird pattern can be traced straight
from the page (or enlarged if you want to sew a larger plush), and
simple instructions mean that even beginners can get started. And
because all the birds are sewn by hand, you don't need a sewing
machine and can sit out in the garden with the birds while you sew.
Whether you choose to sew just your own favourites, or make gifts
for the other bird-lovers in your life, this book will provide
hours of fun and inspiration.
