I'm here and playing around with that baby bluebird photo I posted about last time. I wanted to make a stylized version for an embroidery pattern.
The heart appealed to me the most so I've spent the morning trying to draw it to my liking.
And I think I'm close. I've pulled threads and now I'm ready to stitch it on my jean skirt.
Now for the fun part...
That piece is going to be oh so pretty. Can hardly wait to see it done.

I would like to see your progress on this. I have had a needle in my hand and find that I am pretty rusty. I love the way Gerry made her hummers.
ReplyDeleteCould you make this a tut please!!
Love your babies.
Very sweet and original as always. Love that you are in a "Blue Period"!
ReplyDeletei love this idea! i showed these pix to megan so she could see how a bird develops...will show her this page so she can see how an IDEA develops!
ReplyDeleteThat is going to look so nice!
ReplyDeletesuch pretty birdies, they look so cozy cuddles together.
do you mind if I swipe the pattern?
I can't wait to see what you do with this. Have you thought of incorportating an eyelash yarn? Sure wish I could've seen those feathers up close! They are so interesting.
ReplyDeleteBluebirds are wonderful. Wisconsin had a program to try and get the bluebirds to come back and you would see the houses on posts all over the back roads. We put one up at the cottage but never did get any when we were there. they are so precious in the picture. Imagine when they start to grow and fly. You are very lucky to have them and I can't wait until I see your finished skirt.
ReplyDeleteThe eyelash yarn was a good idea for other birds also.

Aw,that piece is going to be so pretty and original!I've been thinking of making a few pieces of clothing myself with birds,but either with printing or painting them on.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you chose to remember the baby bluebirds in this way! Such a treat! Can't wait to see the results!
ReplyDeleteGlad to see the skirt is getting some more stitching this summer. Those cute little birdies are going to look fab on it. I love the way you have drawn them and the blues you have selected. Can't wait to see them stitched.
