Beautiful Birds Panel is done!

I'm cross-posting this from another thread. Just finished this wall quilt which I had bought as a kit at the Sewing Expo this year.

I would have preferred to use a darker blue in the windows (instead of the blue and green being so close in value), but it still looks pretty great! I'm also really happy with my stippling on this project, although I am not a stippling expert and find it very challenging. The borders are just straight-line quilted.

I really like the soft green and blue; makes me think of grass and sky.

Beautiful job! Love that panel! Can you tell us its overall size and the size of the windows and frames? I'm going to have to get it!

I used the same panel and did attic windows too. We made 4 quilts and love how they all came out

Nice variety of birds.

I really like your bird wall hanging. I love all things 'bird'. I like the light colored border because it allows the colorful birds to stand out. The birds are the focal point and that is beautiful.

Congrats, very nicely done.

Really pretty! Great use of a panel!

Wonderful blocking of bird panel! Love the illusion of each bird panel sitting on the green shelf. Nicely done quilting too.

DonnaC 08-25-2015 11:16 AM

Pollytink, I think the pattern I was using called for cutting the birds into rectangles of 5.5 x 6.25", if I remember correctly. It was around that, anyhow. :)

sept97, I love how dark your "shelves" are.... that looks a lot more dimensional than my version. But hey, live and learn! This was my first attempt at attic window blocks. :)

DonnaC your's is awesome I love it

kaylfordsollimo 08-26-2015 05:35 AM

A bird lover's delight.

annette1952 08-26-2015 09:19 AM

Very pretty. I think the sky blue is pretty in there. The panel is awesome with the variety of birds

Great job. Your decision to stipple and use the straight lines in the border work very well.
