Thank you so much for another amazing pattern. Every tutorial and pattern I bought from you brought me so much joy. I was a little anxious because I am not used to working with interfacings. But every step was explained perfectly, so I got through it and my sweet daughter has another beautiful handmade toy to play with. Kind regards from Germany, Jitka
The wings were so easy to make! I made them for my new granddaughter. Her big brother called her "Baylor Butterfly" the whole time mommy was carrying her, so we had to find some wings for her. What better place than Twigs and Tales to find the perfect ones!
I loved making these, although I was a bit daunted at first. The pattern was so clear and the instructions so easy to follow.
I am now hooked and have ordered the full size patterns to make for my daughter.
I've only made up one pair of Mini Wings, so far...but they are so gorgeous I couldn't wait to share a little review. The pattern is beautifully written and with an online video tutorial so easy to follow, I used recycle materials and although I've never appliqued before I love the outcome and the finished wings are so professional that you'd never know this was my first attempt!!
Excellent and detailed pattern + instructions. Absolutely love T&T patterns and own several and have many more on my wishlist. Made using plant dyed linen scraps and organic cotton batting (2 layers). I skipped the stabilizers/interfacings as I choose to not use them in sewing (polyester/plastics). The wings were stable enough without them. This will be used for newborn photography for our son (to be born in a few months) and then can double as a doll accessory in the future. Easy & quick sew - looking forward to making child sized wings in the future for nature play.
Having made the larger wings previously, these were a breeze to make! A great scrap buster, for a really effective finished product - adding to a doll size MakoMako leaf blanket to make part of a Very Hungry Caterpillar story set for our toy library!
Perfect, well designed,easy to put together. Love the finished wings
Here is my photo of the mini wings, that should be attached to the sprite review
Thank you Angela
I put together two pair of Angelwings for a baby shower for twin girls. The shower was virtual, but the reaction to the wings was terrific. The pattern was easy to follow, and I'll definitely be making more. Time to save up for the wing package!
Made mini dragon wings for my son's ragdoll. We love it.
