Bluetit Woven Badge

Katfish Designs is a local maker based in Hebden Bridge, West Yorkshire. Kath handmakes all of the tweedy birds herself, in her small chapel studio surrounded by the Yorkshire Pennines.

“Louie Bluetit and his mates love to impress you with their acrobatics, hanging upside down as they jostle for peanuts. But don't be late for breakfast or this cheeky little milk thief will have helped himself from the bottles on your doorstep.”

Louie Bluetit is made from mustard yellow, acid green and blue & teal herringbone Harris tweed. He has a beady little black resin button eye. The details of his face have been needle felted from natural merino fibres. The layers of fabric have been appliquéd together and backed with black felt. He fastens with a 2.5cm silver tone bar brooch back.

He measures approximately 6 x 10cm

Louie comes displayed on a manilla luggage label.

Because all of the tweedy birds are hand made, they all have a distinct personality. There may be small differences between yours and the one in the picture
