I've been enjoying playing with felt. There is really just so much that you can do with it.
Originally the initials and tree were going to be painted on... but then I decided hey why not just embroider them... yeah it was a little crazy. I worked on it over Christmas (while playing cards) and on the 8 hour drive back from NC and for the next 2-3 weeks at night while listening to Brisinger (which was an awesome book by the way)
I really dig how it turned out... I was a little worried... the whole timeThe birds are completely pieced ... I dont think you can see that as well as I was hoping.
The nest is two different layers of felt with the top layer cut so the bottom lighter layer can show through
Hopefully mum will take some better pictures then I was able to get. Hope you all are having a good weekend!
