Bird Textile Card for Fathers Day

Used Accuquilt Birds die and cut the extra bits by hand.



Cut the branch freehand and the leaves were cut with a thin metal die.

The nest was made up of wool, bits of fabric and raffia sewn together with free motion stitching between water dissolvable film.

Next time though I would use my needle felting embellishing machine to form the nest directly onto the background for a more natural looser look.
