Project Quilting for 2024 has begun. January 7th, 11:00 Wyoming (MST) the prompt was released.
Bird House. “Think outside the box”, she said. But I could only think square house! I explored my fabrics. There was a bird fabric, no houses though!
I thought, a nest! I could embroider a block! Not sure I could complete an embroidery project in a week! So I decided to step back for a short while. I’ll do a cross word puzzle. Then the light bulb lit up. What about a word puzzle, like the WUZZLES that greet me at the physical therapist’s office every week!
So. I searched for a small house block! Jenny Doan to the rescue!
I have an extra bird appliqué piece from my Edyta Sitar spool quilt project! See it? Bottom left!
Winter-y blues and a crossword puzzle background.
A bit of time cutting and sewing. More time appliquéing. Then some franken-batting was cut, the bird fabric was the backing. I don’t know why I was hoarding this piece? I love it, I need to use it.
Quilting was next, trimming and binding finished . And there you have it. A fun new mug mat for the table beside my glider rocker! I added some embroidery and a couple of beads.
