Hello Everyone
Birds is this month´s topic for Let the People Choose SAL hosted by Jo at Serendipitous Stitching, and I thought that I must have some birds hidden somewhere in my blog to show.
I have only stitched two patterns where birds are the main feature, those being from the Blackwork Flowers and Birds series by Lesley Teare and shown recently on my blog.
Love this pattern which I finished with a crochet surround
Bird in Hand is a pattern by Kathy Schmitz and was made into a Christmas ornament with tiny silver seed beads added.
I made this applique mug rug for a teacup exchange and it is a design by Rita of Twinkle Patchwork.
A little applique robin made into a Xmas card a couple of years ago.
Baby Cardinal by Victoria Sampler was stitched twice, as a box lid and as an ornament. As others, I seem to have quite a few stitcheries where tiny birdies can be seen, so I´m just choosing two of those well known patterns.
12 Days of Christmas by Plum Street Samplers and A trick in my bag by C Mon Monde.
These are the few that I can share today and my favourite photo of all is this little cutie, rescued from a fall by my grandson last summer.

I thoroughly enjoyed all your bird stitching today, Sheryl--in every form! I especially love the little piece with the two bluebirds that you surrounded by your beautiful crochet work! Simply lovely! And the embroidered strawberry that you created is wonderful as well. Had to laugh at your description of your "bizarre" wallhanging... it's funny how our tastes change through the years, isn't it. That looks like it was a lot of work, though!
ReplyDeleteHope that little rescued bird went on to leave a nice birdie life--he is so cute. Have a lovely week ahead, Sheryl ♥
Vaya, tienes muchísimos pájaros en tus bordados y todos preciosos, en especial me parece encantador el que tienes dos veces en la tapa de la caja a juego con el adorno. BESICOS.
ReplyDeleteSheryl, so many lovely birds that you have stitched. I, too have things that I started years ago and look at now and just think Why?" lol!
ReplyDeleteI love the Lesley Teare birds you stitched. I also love the fabrics you chose for the Robin applique.
ReplyDeleteWonderful artworks and cute little bird.Hugs!
ReplyDeleteOh my, so, so many pretty, little birdies you have stitched. All are much too exquisite to be hidden away, Sheryl. I know I have said this to you many, many times....oh, the treasures to be found in those drawers of yours! I am particularly taken with the first birdie. 'Tis singing the most colourful song...just gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful bird projects , you know I am a fan of your work all those little extras you but into your beautiful work.
ReplyDeleteHave a good week.

Baby cardinal and the stitch with the crochet surround are my favorites amongst all your beautiful stitching. I'm so glad your grandson rescued that sweet little bird!!

Dear Sheryl, all your bird designs are just awesome. Such lovely stitcheries and applique. Wonderful.
ReplyDeleteWell you have really let your blog go to the birds now! Lol.....there is so much loveliness that you have shared that I am overwhelmed! I actually think the storks are pretty cool....but I think my favorites are the box lid and the mug rug......
ReplyDeleteI'd say you found quite a few birds! I love them!
ReplyDeleteAs always your stitching and photography are fantastic!
ReplyDeleteI like all your different birds. I don't remember seeing your robin applique before. It's lovely.
ReplyDeleteOh wow, you have a flock of birds, all so beautiful! I really like A Trick in my Bag, too cute.
ReplyDeleteSo many birds in different forms of sewing. Lesley's are so bright, and the tiny cardinal so cute, but my favourite is the sweet little applique bird holding the teabag! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for taking part in The People's Choice this month. Like many of us you have some beautiful designs featuring birds. The Lesley Teare have such wonderful colours. The cardinal boxes are beautifully made and you have some lovely crafted pieces too. I rather like the storks and the kookaburra (??). Maybe a school would appreciate the piece? The colours are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteYou have some very cute birds there! The Leasley Teare one's are so pretty.
ReplyDeleteYour birds are all darling! Even the dreadful herons! :) I especially like the redwork Bird in Hand. That is just lovely.
ReplyDeleteTa mała czarownica mnie urzekła :)
