New Bluebird Sample

Shopping at Sarah’s in Lawrence the other day, I found some fabrics I would like to use as background for the bluebird. And since Sarah’s needs a Bluebird sample, I thought, why not?

I am always on the lookout for large scale prints for these picture quilts so I was drawn to these big batik leaves and the grasses. Blue dogwood flowers are a bit weird but interesting! I already see something that may need changed!

The challenge will be to find the right blues to pop against these muted tones.  Today should be fun!!

    We still have some real bluebirds flitting about from the edge of the woods. Interesting background on your latest work. M-I-L having more surgery Monday. I miss quilting, but caring for her is paramount right now. Thanks for posting pictures of your new projects. At least my mind can quilt… LOL!! Gwynette

    I don’t think the bluebirds stayed with us this summer, since they had to do battle for the house. This fall we took the houses in and will not put them out so early in the spring next year.

    Sorry about your MIL. I hope she does well.
