Sweet little birds all perched on branches.
I have been wanting to make one of these little bird mobiles for at least a year. Last week I decided to just go for it and I made 8 little birds in blues, yellows, and browns. They turned out great.
Then I found some drift wood that I had brought with me from Hawaii and I put together this little mobile for the baby room.
I love that they are all a little different. I tried to use boyish colors, but I really wanted to throw a hot pink one in there!
These little birds are great as decoration around the home, pincushions, baby toys, cat toys, you name it. If you don't have room for a whole mobile, you can still make a few to enjoy. I am going to make one with a little bell or rattle inside for a baby toy (can't wait to see that in action!)
A quick and easy sewing project, perfect for beginners. The pattern uses hand sewing, but I used my machine for everything. To tie the branches together I used raffia, and I used my hot glue gun to position the birds on the branches.
I got the pattern from Spool Sewing. They have lots of great inspiration and a few other patterns for free.

Have fun and good luck. You will be sewing up a flock of these in no time!
