A cardinal for the bride
Life has been crazy and stressful lately so I haven't had much time for seeing but while tiding my sewing table I realized I had not posted this block. I have been working on the Civil War Bride quilt off and on for over a year and I only have a few blocks left. One if these blocks has two birds that look like vultures to me and I decided to change them to cardinals. Much better I think.
very pretty pair of cardinals--I really like the way they are arranged in the leaves--I see a few cardinals around here in the fir trees with their brilliant reds!! Have a Happy Thanksgiving & here's to hope that things will slow down in your world so the important stuff gets done (quilting of course)
ReplyDeleteI agree, much prettier! It's a beautiful block.
ReplyDeleteHave a happy Thanksgiving and hopefully a stress less on. Hmm, is that possible? Either way, I'm wishing it for you!
I LOVE your cardinals!! I changed mine to bluebirds following Suzi's example. The vulture-like birds on the original were... interesting :0)
ReplyDeleteVery pretty block. Beautiful! ;)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I love how you have done the birds, and the colours you are using are so lovely.
ReplyDeleteI'm always happy to see you're working on this quilt. The Cardinal birds wonderful,nicer than vultures. I like the way some of the leaves over lap the birds giving the scene a 3D look.
ReplyDeleteGood change, I like cardinals better also and yours are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteGood change, I like cardinals better also and yours are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteLove your cardinals. They are our state bird. Did you design this one, or did you find them in another place. I am always interest in them. Thanks for sharing your beautiful block.
ReplyDeleteI Love cardinals and the fabrics you used are perfect!!!
