Once again I've been working on quillies, trying to finish up with the colors i used for my winter blues hearts. They're created with strips of wool rolled together and they were perfect for this beautiful quillie egg makedo. There are countless hours of work rolling and assembling these pieces. The quillies were then applied to a stuffed wool egg. I mounted it on a proddy wool nest atop a tin base. Perched on top is one of my sweet little mohair chicks. I've added a wooden tag with sweet lil vintage chick print. A one of a kind treasure that should bring you joy for many years to come! Just under 12 inches tall. Created with many loving stitches in my smoke free home, a Sassafras Hill original. *'tis spoken for, thank you*

They've been grubbied up for an old timey appearance. They are tucked into one of Matthew's wooden vases which I've stenciled with an antique seed catalog graphic. Floral oasis topped with spanish moss holds them in place nicely. Just under 12 inches tall. Created with many loving stitches in my smoke free home.
