Cushion Creatures

After completing the owl doorstop I made a few mini cushion owls. These have less detail in the eyes than the first owls I created, I think this makes them look cuter. The body on the first owl was painted by hand with fabric paints, the other two are using some fabrics from the collection I have gathered, they are by moda.



Here we have the cushion creatures I have made (well, they are small versions of what the cushions will look like). I have just started work on the large cushions now.

Getting up to date

Here are the next steps with the owl designs, lots more trials using cotton for bodies and leather or felt for wings, beads and buttons for eyes. Some of the fabrics are plain or printed while others I have painted myself. The large brown and white owl is my first completed doorstop.
