So I have been sewing these bird blocks and love how they look in my great room. I tosses one on the couch to get an idea of how the colors work in the room and loved how it worked there so today I whipped up this little pillow. The pattern is adapted from the Birdsong quilt by Blackbird designs but I decided it would be fun to use some wools for some of the appliqué. The background is the same home decor weight fabric that I used in my Union Jack pillow and the reds and greens are the wools. I didn't have any of the right color teal wool so just needle turned some quilters cotton instead. It was fun to play with wool today and even more fun to have a finish.
sweet!
