To make this mobile we used the following items which are available from our online store: 100% wool felt, corn fiber and a metal split ring. The rest of the supplies came from my personal craft stash.
For this mobile I decided to make 7 birds in bright rainbow colours. I got the inspiration for the bird body pattern from http://ericacatarina.blogspot.com.au
Some of the birds have embroidered closed eyes or open ones
(which were made using black beads) or one closed and one open!
The legs are made using thread and beads. For consistency I used the same thread that is used to attach the birds to the ring frame.
All of the hanging threads are looped around a metal ring and then tied back around the hoop.
A little black bow with heat sealed edges finished off the top.
I am really pleased with the end result and can't wait to get started on the next mobile!
