Cute new designs by Made by Mosey

Melbourne crafter Madeleine Sargent (aka Made by Mosey) is one clever cookie. These beautiful patchwork 'hot air balloon' mobiles are her latest lovely creations. Handmade from a combination of vintage and new textiles, I cannot imagine a sweeter present for a new bub or Mum-to-be!

They're available from Madeleine's Etsy shop as single balloons or in a trio of three. Too cute.
