Description

A charming little celebration of colour, pattern and birds, this handmade textile picture would make a lovely gift for any bird lover or a cheerful addition to a cosy corner of your home. I've created the background using a pretty collection of cotton floral fabrics in shades of pinks and greens, carefully cut and arranged to create a colourful mosaic effect. The mix of patterns gives the picture a lovely folk-art feel, with each little section adding its own splash of colour and character. At the centre is a sweet dark-red folk bird, with a layered fabric wing. I've used embroidery threads across his chest and tail to create feathering and stitch his tiny beak and legs. To tie the whole design together, I've added small leaves and flowers to some of the mosaic panels, echoing the shapes and colours found in the surrounding fabrics. The combination of patterned cottons, layered fabric and hand embroidery gives this little artwork a wonderfully tactile, handmade quality. A cheerful, one-of-a-kind piece of folk-inspired textile art, perfect for anyone who loves birds, flowers and colourful handmade things. And in case you're sending it as a gift I've made a matching gift tag. The artwork is presented in a black and white frame - outer measurements 22.5cm sq and a white mount with a 9.5cm sq aperture. The frame has glass at the front with a hanging hook and strut on the reverse, allowing you to choose how it is displayed. It is titled and signed on reverse. I have included photos of the artwork in and out of the frame. It has been photographed with the glass removed to reduce glare. FOR MULTIPLE PURCHASES I COMBINE POSTAGE AND REFUND EXCESS DELIVERY COSTS. The item will be sent 48 hr tracked Royal Mail. DELIVERY TO UK MAINLAND ONLY.

A note from the seller

Hello and welcome! Thank you for popping into my shop! I’m a retired Graphic Designer, but thankfully I haven’t retired from being creative. I still love the process of making things, experimenting with colour, pattern and texture, and giving new life to all sorts of materials. You’ll find a colourful and eclectic mix of handmade pieces in my shop, with birds and flowers featuring strongly throughout. I particularly enjoy combining unexpected materials, patterns and colours to create unique mixed-media pieces — so there’s always something a little different to discover. I’m also a big believer in happy postage! If you find more than one item you’d like, I ALWAYS combine postage and refund any excess. I know it can be a little alarming to see the postage total increase as you add items to your basket, but please don’t worry. I’ll package your purchases together and refund the excess postage on the same day your order is dispatched. So have a browse and thanks so much for visiting!

  • A carefully packaged, beautifully presented design combination that took the stress out of buying a gift. It was an ideal little thoughtful gift for an elderly relative in a care home who i know misses her garden. She is going to love the combination of the lavender bag and the echinacea’s.
