Tuesday afternoon I finished stitching the bird block and started on the tulips and hearts block. I changed up the position of the bird's wing to make him/her look like she just landed on the branch.
I finished it Wednesday afternoon.
I'm having fun choosing fabrics for this project. If you look the bird appears to have an eye nicely placed.
I think I like the horizontal orientation for the background for the tulips and hearts but will decide when all the blocks are finished.
Hard to get a picture of the two blocks side by side due to their size but you get the picture.
I also got a nice surprise in the mail on Tuesday. Stacy West from Buttermilk Basin gave Anna Bates from The Woolie Mammoth blog some patterns for some giveaways and I was a lucky winner the last go around. Thanks Stacy and Anna! Also congratulations to Anna as a new contributor to the Daily Blog as Anna and G On the Road. Her first post was yesterday.
Off to prep some of the border blocks from Month two. Working backwards to catch up!

That is a beautiful block and beautiful fabric for it.
Congrats on the win, that will be a fun piece to make.

Both blocks are wonderful. Was that eye on purpose, or serendipity? I do love the tulips block and think the horizontal is the way to go, too. I looked at it sideways, and like it better this way. I love the block you won! That company designs the best things.
It looks as though you are having a great time with these fabulous blocks!. I love the colourful fabrics you are using. Congratulations on winning a fun prize.
