Description and size
I never know what I bring home from the trip to Scrapstore. This time I took a bundle of linen scraps, mainly due to colours I saw in the mix. Little I knew scraps included bundle of birds! As soon as I saw them, I knew these will be perfect to put together into this zippered pouch. These are medium size and will be handy to pack various items. Great as occasional small clutch bag as well.
Birds; Blue Tit, Goldfinch, Bullfinch
I have made few of each and you can choose the bird but you will receive random colours pouch.
You can see how they were made following link to YouTube tutorial: https://youtu.be/lpvly8_RZcg
7 inches high and 9 inches wide, they will stand when filled up. All internal edges were finished off by zigzagging material.
Materials and care
Remnants of linen on the outside and either cotton or cotton blend for lining + fleece batting has been used in construction. Machine washable in cold with similar colours and tumble dry on delicate. For best results hand wash in cool water with a mild detergent, then dried flat and press on reverse side.
Process
Most of my fabrics are from charity or second-hand stores. This is supplemented by fabrics I can find in my local Scrapstore. It is a mix of recycled and new fabrics. For that reason, I can offer unique items. Either one off or in small series.
All fabrics are lovingly matched and stitched together to provide final item. Once its completed, I then machine wash product. It adds the vintage crinkle (patchwork type of items) but also to ensure item is clean of any debris or additional products used during construction.
Packaging and postage
Postage costs are based on the weight and size and calculated in the basket at the checkout. Orders in UK over £50 postage is free. Currently not set for postage abroad, but please contact me if you require this service and I will enquire locally regarding postage and agree with you directly.
Let’s go green where we can. There are so many packaging materials we can re-use, so if I happen to have a box or envelope still in excellent condition, I received previously myself, I will use it to send package to you.
