A little penguin is recreated in softly layered textiles. Stitching and painted detail lend the brooch dimension, colour and detail while keeping it lightweight and flexible.
Created in Vikki Lafford Garside’s studio in Witney, Oxfordshire. Layers of fabric are machine embroidered and hand painted to build a three-dimensional effect. Soft felt backs the reverse and sealed edges help prevent fraying. The result is lightweight, soft and flexible.
It can be pinned to a favourite coat, cardigan, scarf or bag for a little bird-inspired detail.
Each piece is individually made; small variations in colour, stitching and painted detail are part of its character.
