Here's today's work in progress spurred on by the need for a little hand work before (another) sewing class tomorrow.
This little bird was adapted from one I saw last year in a Better Homes and Gardens magazine called Embellish.
Have a great weekend....spring is on its way!
I was all excited that I saw a red bird chirping from the top of our tree this morning, but now we are on another winter watch and expecting to get dumped on again. Love your little bird so much! Whatcha going to do with him? I love redwork.
