Primitive Handcrafted Stuffed Muslin Raven on a Vintage Beehive Bobbin

Details

This shiny black primitive Raven was stitched from a lovely natural weave part waste muslin, stuffed very tightly, vanilla coffee soaked and baked, stained black, dusted with cinnamon then sanded and antiqued with a polish. His finish has dried nice and stiff and he’s very sturdy. His eyes are black beads and his wings have been decoratively embroidered with multiple lines. His wings are attached flat to his body with upholstery thread and his large curved beak is thread sculpted. This Raven stands on a vintage wooden beehive bobbin and has a red star and blue lined fabric ribbon with an acorn bell and two small brass bells hanging from the center and a matching ribbon around the top of the wooden bobbin.

This Raven was inspired from multiple patterns purchased here on Etsy
