kreativ bluebird

I so wish that we had bluebirds. I know of only a few people that do have them in their yard & they say that they are so beautiful . I stitched this bluebird as a tiny gift for my great-aunt whom I love dearly.
I am also dearly flattered to have received this award from Twyla and Lindsey -- you must visit their sumptuous blog! It is such a fun trip through nostalgia & beauty! Thank you Twyla & Lindsey!

And now I am trying to narrow down my choices to 5 bloggers to receive this award from me......

  3. What a lovely bluebird. LOVE IT, of course. You are awesome. Wowsers, you always just come up with the neatest ideas. Your auntie with love it, I am sure. Glad you liked that fabric site, I found it thanks to another blogger. I felt like I got some steals on some of my favorite fabrics. So much I could with all of that yumminess when it arrives that I can hardly stand the wait. Hmm. It is hotter than the dickens here today, hopefully your tweens are getting some swimming in.

  10. Your stitch technique so good - if I tried doing a lot of stitches close together I think I would find the work puckering. We don't have bluebirds here but yours is beautiful!
