| Bluebird Head and Breast WIP |
This was the "finished" version I shared previously, before I looked at the photographs. Once I reviewed my work, I decided that it needed some frogging and re-stitching. I wanted more of the darkest shade to be used on the breast area, so I ended up removing the light colors below the dark in this photograph.

| Reworked Bluebird Breast |
Once I'd done that, I started the revision. I'm much happier with this version, so I'll be continuing on from here. I know it's subtle, but I think the rework was worth it. I like it a lot more.
I work today, but will be back to stitching later this week. I'm also going to do some canning this week because the weather is supposed to be cooler. I have an order for eight bottles of the Hickory Hill Farm Hickory Syrup, and I want to pressure can some of the meat that's been in the freezer. Ahhhh, yes. Another busy week. Then, there's this...
...already!
One more day before I can post photos from our Craft Day. I'm missing an image and need to get it from one of the other ladies. Hopefully tomorrow. See you later!
The Bluebirds are looking good.
ReplyDeleteYes, October already, my favorite month.
Can't wait to see what you crafted.

Hi Marilyn:
DeleteI guess it's appropriate that I'm stitching birds, considering how quickly time flies. lol

Looking great! Yes, can't believe it's October already. Wasn't it just last week that we were changing the calendars to January?
ReplyDeleteHi MA:
DeleteI know, right?!

Sherry of createology: Once again your vision is perfect and your frogging and restitching is just right. I am anxious to see your reveal what craft day created. I am super excited you have joined the ATC swap Jan leads. Happy October and Autumn Dear…
ReplyDeleteHi Sherry:
DeleteOnce I decided a revision was needed, I just sucked it up and took out all my thread bits. I'm very happy with the way it turned out, too - even though it can be a pain. I'm looking forward to the ATC swap, too! Jan said I get to make TEN cards each month. wheeee! Happy October Autumn to you, too, my dear friend.
