What room is complete without a collection of our proud country's state birds? This was a question plaguing me for longer than I'd like to admit- and then I came across this project.
I'm in the beginning stages of what is sure to be months of work...two words: bird quilt. The end product will be comprised of 30 embroidered birds.
They are simple line drawings and I have completed the eastern bluebird (of Missouri and New York) and the black-capped chickadee (of Maine and Massachusetts). 2 down, 28 to go!
I look forward to the night that I can wrap myself in national pride and sleep under this quilt!
