Whoopie Goldfish is made from an orange herringbone tweed with an orange head and tail. She has a needle felted rainbow on her back and her scales have been free motion embroidered with gold thread. Her eye is made from an abalone and a black resin button. Whoopie  measures approximately 9cm x 4cm

She is appliquéd onto a lantern that has been covered with deep teal wave print 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.
