I hate moths, so I have no idea why I randomly decided to make one body is made of wool and chenille sticks wrapped around a wire and masking tape body.
Eyes are upholstered buttons, antennas are feathers and wings are felted and sewn wool with a wash away and the grey patches are my cat fur, because why not
Very, very cool! I love the overall look and colors and using upholstery buttons for eyes and feathers for antenna are such great ideas!
Teeny recomendation: if you flip the 1st and second pictures in your post, that full body image with the wing detail will be the thumbnail/main image for your post. Not a big deal, but those wings are so gorgeous.
Thank you, Im still trying to work out how to post and edit on my phone my small screen and fat fingers make it a little difficult to do. Ill load it on computer and see how I go!
I love all the details on this! That furry body is perfect, the upholstered buttons definitely capture that ‘fly eye’ look, the chenille wrapped legs are a great way to give the legs structure while still capturing the fuzziness. And those wings - beautiful! Who knew moths could be so lovely?
Funny enough, I am not a fan of moths either, yet I also have a moth project in the works .
