Vanessa Mooncie spent many happy hours as a child sitting with her mother and grandmother learning to knit and crochet. She went on to study fashion and textile design and became a children's wear designer, illustrator and interior designer. Vanessa now specializes in silkscreen work (www.vanessamooncie.com) and designing crochet jewellery through her company Kissy Suzuki (www.kissysuzuki.com). She lives with her family in a rural village in the south of England. Vanessa has written many successful books for GMC Publications, including Animal Hats, Crocheted Wild Animals, Sew Adorable, And Sew to Bed and Crocheted Sea Creatures. She is also a regular contributor to other craft books and magazines.
"The bird patterns are very elegant and life like. The photos -- especially the ones against stylized backgrounds -- are wonderful eye candy and also inspirational for creating an indoor "environment" for your own bird patterns. As with Vanessa's other books, while the patterns use simple stitches, the level of detail is quite high. If you love birds, or have bird lovers in your circle of "crochet-worthy" gift recipients, you will definitely enjoy Crocheted Birds."-- "Underground Crafter"
