Spring Chickadees



Oh, how I would love to hear the birds chirp right now!

Winter is seeming like forever here in Montana these days. Plugging in the van to ensure a start when turning the ignition key, brushing the snow off the windows, frozen ice on the windshield wiper blades, and watching every step you take. Then, just like out of no where down you go whether it be forwards or backwards . . . an instant feeling of defeat.



Since the birdies don't seem to be in the near future, I decided to stitch some to work on a colorful quilt top. Maybe I will get it put together by the time green grass and green leaves and sunshine appear around here.



Until then, I may just have to go and purchase some fresh cut flowers for the dining table -- those always perk me up!! Hope you will do the same if you are beginning to feel the way I am these days.

Easter Chickadee


I spotted a felt cutout while in Michael's the other day and thought how it could work as a pattern for an applique' quilt piece. (I purchased a bunny face cutout also -- a project for another day).



It was one of those "picture it in my mind" of the exact fabric scrap I have to use with my new chickadee pattern purchase moments.

I don't think the end result turned out badly, but I do think my chickadee is on the very plump side.

Now to visualize the border or embroidered detail to go on this mini-quilt piece. I know it will come along.

Savannah wants this one too!
