Handmade Fabric Animal Heads | Tess & Friends

ALL ABOUT TESS & FRIENDS

Enjoy wildlife at home

Tess and Friends merges two passions –

wildlife and sewing.

The result is a likeable array of eye-catching characters, such as gentle Ox, majestic Stag and intrepid Fox.

This handmade menagerie take their name from our beloved collie Tess, who used to snooze next to me while waiting for her friends take shape, piece by piece.

Which friend will you choose to put on your wall?
