Christmas Birds 2017
Felt and Lavender
 |
| Cardinal 1 (for Dh) |
My dear friend, Heather, had given me more felt for my Christmas birds again this year when we visited her back in July. I fill the birds with organic lavender and sometimes a little white fluff. I had a great time making this year's birds! It is so nice to allow myself time to sit and work on something for others. I had hoped to give these as Christmas presents and did for Dd and Dh, but I am just mailing out the birds now. Dh says I should say they are early Easter gifts instead of late Christmas gifts!!! Thank you, Heather!

| I worked on this previous X-mas bird to improve it from a few years ago. I like it better now. I had given this Robin to Dh for Christmas, but I had used the wrong color thread and it didn't look very good, so I fixed it. |
