Birds and Bags


Lots of birds come to visit us here on a daily basis including the red bellied woodpecker and cardinal posted above. My computer is situated in front of a window where I can peruse and hear many different birds. Occasionally a woodpecker will decide to drill on our roof and you would think it was a jackhammer. Amazing that such a small bird has so much power. 

Recently on one of Anni's supervised walks she upset a cardinal by trying to chase it and it proceeded to follow her from branch to branch chirping very loudly. Later I discovered that it has a nest with babies and was letting Anni know that she is not welcome. Anni was completely oblivious and quickly got distracted when a little butterfly crossed her path.

Shop Update: Cross Body Satchels with handmade bird appliques now available in the Pesky Cat Designs shop!

Have you thought of designing a woodpecker shaped bird applique?
I love all of your birds on branches appliques, they really make your bags stand out!
Thanks for visiting us and for your lovely comments! Anni is quite happy to get so much attention. I will be sure to post more pics of her in my future posts :)

Damjana- I have done specific bird in the past such as blue jays,doves and small parrots. It seems that my more general birds sell better so I tend to use them more often when creating bags. But I can always do a custom order!
Damjana- A woodpecker, perhaps pecking away at a tree sounds like a cool idea. I just may try it!

Love your collage Eliza and the little story :) The woodpecker reminds me of a childhood cartoon Woody woodpecker... that I LOVED! LOL You probably remember it too?! :)
Thanks for your comment it was such a lovely time catching up with another bunch of like-minded ladies, and we had a great excuse to do so! :)

New Harris Tweed Purses

Harris Tweed Color Block Purse This week in the studio I did some experimenting combining various Harris Tweed weaves to create a purse. This purse is also a new design measuring at approximately 14" wide, 8.5" high and 2.5" deep. Roomy enough to fit your daily essentials with a stream-lined design to fit comfortably under your arm. Harris Tweed Color Block Purse The purse above is made from Harris Tweed wool in two plain weaves and a barleycorn weave. I love the contrasting colors and textures. Back view of purses above. Harris Tweed Two Tone Bag And last but not least, a basket/tote design, using a lovely blue Harris Tweed plain weave and a Macleod check. All these new bags are now available at the Pesky Cat Designs shop. Wishing everyone a great weekend ahead!
