This week I was inspired by the 18th and early 19th century needlework that I saw in the Fabric of a New Nation exhibit at the Chicago Art Institute and the birds that have been checking out my yard, the bird feeder and the various flowering plants. I even got a picture of one of my visitors before the dogs chased it away.
The branch is stem stitch and so is the bird, the flowers are made up of detached chain. All of it is stitched in rayon Edmar threads on green cotton.
lovely bird
