Birds is Helinä’s theme for the fabric book swap at
Fibre Fever. I patched this greenfinch by hand, the pattern is from the book
Patchwork Tiere by Ula Lenz.
Most of the fabrics were scraps from my unfinished double weddding ring quilt (http://fat-quarter.blogspot.nl/2011/10/work-in-slow-progress-22.html). We're going to have a very busy week again, so I hope I can find time to post. I have lots of things to share, but no time!
What a lovely bird, Annet! Such nice fabrics you have chosen, and very neatly stitched. Hope you are having a lovely week. Barbara xx

Verwijderenwhat a great block, still to get my brain around paper piecing at the moment it is a struggle!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThanks, Margaret. I use freezer paper at the back of the fabric to cut my fabric pieces.
