Customer Reviews
An absolutely stunning pattern, beautifully written with plenty of variety. Angel wings were admired by many.
Lovely pattern for making wings. Videos were helpful when needed some clarification.
Only issue I had was cutting 2 batting when only 1 was needed as it wasn’t clear so I had some waste at the end.
My daughter loves them!
Very cute pattern but some of the construction could be simplified. Too many different directions to print off. Would be best to have it all in one simplified document. My granddaughters will love them.
Ik heb deze met veel plezier gemaakt. En ik ga er zéker meer maken! Heb meteen nieuwe stofjes ervoor uitgezocht. Fantastisch om kado te geven. Goede duidelijke beschrijving!! Echt aanrader!!!
I saw these and knew exactly who I wanted to make them for. Only, now I have made them for the little boys who will be getting them, I want a pair for myself too!! I made some mistakes along the way (although the instructions are very clear, but that's just me), and the turning was a huge challenge (and took longer than the application) but they turned out so beautifull!
Loved the pattern, I used a really stiff hat interfacing which was a bit too stiff but they came out lovely once I’d opened the seams a little to turn the right side out. Pattern is easy to follow. Although I struggled with working out how much of each thing I needed as I have a difficulty with numbers. Perhaps they could put total amounts as well and the amounts for using up scraps.
Love this pattern. I underestimated just how difficult it would be to turn this project right side out. I thought I was doing something wrong, I restarted so many times. I eventually figured out that the handle from a wooden spoon does the trick! Phew… I was relieved. Otherwise, this is a well written pattern. The final product was well worth it.
Challenging -but great instructions and videos made it straightforward -will definitely make another pair
I was in a rush so I admit I didn’t follow the instructions exactly but OMgoodness these turned out so well! My grandson was thrilled! The instructions I did follow were very clear and easy to understand.
Just finished making these wings. Great instructions and support videos. Delighted with finished product.
