Obviously I couldn't just make one swan. That would defeat the point. So I made a lovely couple using vintage cotton pique and layered their wings with some old ruffled eyelet embroidered curtains that had seen better days. Their beaks are sewn from scraps of wonderful old quilt pieces.
I think in the natural world the male is a little larger but I gave him a smart bow tie so there would be no questions.
And the female got a little swatch of old lace.
Mr. and Mrs. Swan

Oh My! Loribeth, Mr and Mrs Swan are so amazing! You mind is so very creative! I love the materials you used and the bow tie, as well as the lace for the Mrs! You must have had so much fun doing these!
Hugs,
