“Kitty Kingfisher is a shock of electric blue, flashing past you, quick as lightning. This sharp eyed loner is the high diving champion of the riverbank. But be warned, sometimes it might be your pond that this daring diva visits for her fish supper.”

Kitty Kingfisher is made from burnt orange and blue & teal herringbone Harris tweed. The details on her body have been needle felted from natural merino fibres. She is appliquéd onto a lantern that has been covered with a teal leaf print cotton Batik fabric. My batik fabric comes from Hoffman Batiks, who are a 90 year old Californian, family run firm. All of their batik is hand printed in Bali.

The lantern measures 12cm high with a diameter of 10cm.

This lantern is suitable for use with battery powered tea lights or filled with a string of fairy lights. Do not use with candles as the fabric is not flame retardant.
