Robin 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.

“Cheeky Bobby Robin is always the last to bed, serenading you to sleep by the street lamp near your  window. But don't worry, he’ll still be up in time to start the dawn chorus, his bright red breast warding off the gloom of the darkest winter days.”

Bobby Robin is made from vibrant burnt orange Harris tweed and Yorkshire brown wool herringbone tweed with brown and cerise overstripe wing. He has a beady little black resin button eye. His white streak has been needle felted in 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 10 x 6cm.

Bobby 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
