Making spring birds.

It was so lovely and sunny today but I have had to resist the urge to get gardening or go for a long walk since I must be careful of my back just now so I designed a simple felt bird with the idea of making enough to put up a Spring display in my shop. Great fun even if the felt was weird incredibly cheap stuff from Tesco, the tails are made form the ribbon off some lovely Christmas chocolates. I think we have Cath Kidson to blame for the fact that we now find pink and red an acceptable colour combination! I did the pink one first so the yellow one has had the design tweaked slightly to give him a rather smaller head. Ijust now need to get some pale blue and lime green felt so I can make the flock.
