Cotton Bird Designs

If you know me then it’s a well known fact that I like birds but my breath was taken away when I saw these exquisite little creatures. They are beautifully hand stitched from vintage paper and ephemera using hand drafted patterns.

The attention to detail is fabulous and I love the idea of waste paper being reclaimed and turned into something beautiful.

As you can see Angela doesn’t just make birds. These shabby chic little cottages and potting sheds are inspired by tumbledown country buildings.
