About Me

My photo
I currently live in Birmingham and come from Solihull. I have a love of all things crafty, developed from my mom's love of crafts as I was growing up. I currently work in marketing, but I'm a qualified Aromatherapist, and use to be self employed alongside a day job, might one day return to that. I try to fit in crafts when I can, I wish I had more time and money to spend on it! I enjoy researching my family history and finding out about the past. It can get frustrating, but is really rewarding when you have a break through! I hope to meet people with similar interests as me and swap advice/stories.

Felted Robin Craft

Saw this ages ago in Kirstie Allsops first Christmas Craft show and now only just got round to making one!! A felted robin...

You'll need to cut x2 robin shapes, plus wings & a beak

Layering the woollen fleece gives the robin texture

You can always trim down edges to tidy the robins up

You layer on top the red breast before adding on a wing



The final robin, with added feather for tail!


For the pattern see Kirstie's felted robin pattern here.
