/claws to enable the bird to perch on your finger
Australia is well known for it's beautiful, brightly coloured parrots such as this pair of Eastern Rosellas. Each Bird measures approximately 10 inches/25 cm in length. Push your finger through the loops of elastic and move your hand up and down to make the bird's wings flap and tail move. Decide on a preferred seam allowance width - pick either the Blue = 1/4 inch Cutting Line or Red = 5 mm Cutting Line. Cut out all the required pieces leaving either only the Red line or Red + Blue lines visible. Remember the Purple line is a Shared Cutting Line (everyone uses it)! The directions for how to make these Perching Parrots can be found in my New Old Stock (NOS) Vintage Book Soft Toys Piece by Piece Book which was available at https://www.etsy.com/au/listing/229229112/book-soft-toys-piece-by-piece on Etsy.com but can now only be purchased directly from me by emailing Janette at justbananas.oversofttoys@gmail.com Read a Blog Post about how the design was created https://wp.me/p4hRJO-m5
