And I'm giving them eyes and will embroider on the beaks. |

Anyway, thanks again Qbee for finding us such a pretty block. Gorgeous fabrics! Love your bird house loads! :thumbup: |

Just saw the picture with the flowers and I really want to try to add those also. Very nice idea!! |

Well done with the birdhouse blocks, all are lovely!
Deecee, can I ask is your birds and wattle painted? Truely beautiful. For anyone who may be interested the wattle tree in Deecee's block is Australia's national flower - hope you don't mind me showing you this pic! |

I wanted to do the Hoffman's woodpeckers that live in my yard, but then I realized that I needed to do a tree trunk, not a house, and then I needed to embellish the trunk. The orchids that grow on the real tree trunk are much too hard to even imagine doing, so I decided to do a philodendron. There is a minimum of sewing, and a lot of appliqué.

Beautiful work!! :D
