Yes, I too have parrots, that is what got me into making the quilts. There was nothing really on the market besides some small machine applique items or items made using parrot printed fabric. Right now I am so swamped with orders, I have 2 hyacinth macaw quilts to finish (a pattern I will be retiring once I finish these 2 as it's so hard to do!!) 1 36 patch with multiple species, (I make those in a 24 to 54 patch) 1 umbrella cockatoo quilt with a beach theme, the black palm quilt, a quilt with mini toucan's and a quilt using about 15 of 1 girls personal birds!

I have 9 african greys, 1 very old yellow napes amazon (he's pushing 70!) 2 senegals I used to have a scarlet macaw, but lost her to PDD, a very nasty parrot disease with no test, let alone a cure.

Berkie, cockatoos are my favourite birds and this one is beautiful. This is a fascinating bird; here in Oz we had an ABC documentary "Parrots of Australia" on tv, which I had to buy. We have the Carnaby Cockatoo, red, yellow and occasionally white tailed (which are endangered) visiting in trees nearby, I feel privileged to see them even if they are noisy and destroy trees. I look forward to seeing the finale.
