1960s Birds Collection

Six designs to make

Inspired by designs made by my mother Joan Nicholson in 1960s as teaching aids to encourage children to take up embroidery.

These bright little birds can be used as gifts, both for Christmas and birthdays. They are simple to make and embroider and have open possibilities to embellish further with beads and sequins (not provided)

Each bird measures roughly 10cm x 6-7cm
