I've done a bit more work on One for the Birds.
It is now measuring approximately 38" x 40". I am starting to feel like it is looking like a quilt top. Not nearly big enough obviously, but on its way now.
I want this finished before the end of September. Sooner preferably. It is at the top of the list with a couple of other things. One more day to the summer holidays to go. Then I just might have some time on my hands occasionally.

Def not a Hitchcock quilt - very beautiful and not a bit scary. I love how you put all these wee birdies in their own frames and your distribution across the quilt top is spot on! Gonna be so good to cuddle under!
ReplyDeleteIt's looking fabulous!!! Hope the final day of the holidays goes well x
ReplyDeleteIt's looking fab Susan - wishing you a peaceful last day of Summer hols x

ReplyDeleteIt's lovely and I don't doubt for a minute that you will have it done by end September - I love birds too but can never find any decent fabric with them on.
