This I call my Bird of Paradise Machine Applique' Wall Hanging.
It took me very little time to create the main part, but a little bit more time was involved in the added touches -- yo yo's, braided fabric strips for branches, and the eye work.
I am just waiting for a darning foot for my sewing machine to do some machine quilting on this piece. I found the darning foot on Ebay yesterday and it should be shipped coming my way very soon.
This is my interpretation of the earlier blog on a quilt block I found online someone called a peacock. I enlarged the pattern with a tracer projector -- a wonderful tool I have that I don't pull out often enough!
