Fabulous to see this finish of the Fantail Piwakawaka Etui by Mercia Dryburgh in New Zealand! Hasn't she done a beautiful job.

The fantail has a space for needles in the tail and under the wings and a blade for cutting threads in the bronze beak.

If you are waiting for a fantail kit, we are just waiting on delivery of one special thread to allow us to complete the kits.
