THERE ONCE WAS A LITTLE BIRD....









somethings i did in class with my lovely partner Jodie :)
we picked out some clothes from the pile on the table and had just three hours to create our lovely assumable...
we ripped up the skirt and cut of the arms. sewed the stripes of skirt on to the legs
cut out circle and sewed them on to the strips.
cut the bottom of the jacket off and rolled up the zips to create flowers.
and then bunched up a curtain and hand sewed that on to the jacket, to create a "flower"
and then i had to wear it in a tree....
