This is my completed goldwork Blue Tit from Clara's workshop. I shared a short video on Instagram, so if you'd like to see it closeup - and also see the back - just click HERE. I've hung this in my studio for now with my cardinal and robin wall quilts. (Which reminds me, I should start work on the bluebirds soon.)
I hoped you liked following along as I created this piece. I'll be working on the red roses strawberry sachet today. Handsome has to have a procedure done, so I'll stitch while I wait. I'll show you how far I get with that piece tomorrow. Have a great day!
Oh, it. is. beautiful!! What a lovely little treasure you have created! You are certainly amassing quite an amazing handcrafted bird collection! I also enjoyed the birds singing in the background on your video (as did my cats who came running to see what all the tweeting was about 😄)
ReplyDeleteHi Lois:
DeleteThank you so much for your kind words - and the giggle. I can just see your cats all interested in the bird songs! I may have to play it for Claudette and Crystal to see their reactions, too!

Hi Marilyn:
DeleteThank you, dear. I'll tell Handsome you were wishing him well. He's sore tonight, but should feel better tomorrow. Darn skin cancers! My fair-skinned Swede is paying for time in the sun in his younger years. This one was a lot more extensive. I feel bad for him.

It turned out beautifully! I was wondering how the nest was going to figure in to the overall look but now I see. Well done!
ReplyDeleteSending good thoughts for Handsome!
Hi MA:
DeleteI decided to finish it as Clara designed it (for a change). I like that the bird has a little nest, too. As you can read from my comment above to Marilyn, Handsome is a bit under the weather right now. I'm going to be a good nurse and do my best to make him comfortable.
Thanks on both counts, dear.
xoxo

Love this! ❤️ The little nest/ eggs add so much.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! I thought so, too.

ReplyDeleteHi Andrea:
DeleteThank you so much, my friend. I enjoyed making it, to be sure, and I'm so grateful you liked watching my process. Thank you also for your prayers for my husband.Even though it was an extensive skin cancer procedure, it wasn't as bad as it might have been. Now to heal up, and I'll do my best to help him heal.
