Okay ladies, this is my first attempt at thread painting. I watched videos on you tube for days. Planned it out in my head, practiced, practiced, and practiced.

So,it is not finished yet. Still have the beak, eyes and feet to do, plus the title. The author is a dear friend of mine and I am making this as a Surprise!!! :)

Any constructive critics would be welcome!!
