A bird in the silver cup

Not in the hand, as the case may be. 

Just wanted to show off this little birdie. 

My "To Do" list is slowly whittling down.  This was a special order for my friend Ruthe!  My dear, Ruthe is one of the most delightful people I know, always quick with a hug and sweet with a compliment.  She and I love to joke about "making miracles in a two inche space" (referring to the invariable two inches of work space on our desks).  Ruthe is quite the awesome scrap booker as well.  And we share a passion for all things Halloween.  She was born on that date...isn't that fun! 

I did a little more stitching and bigger pieces of fabric so he would have a more quilted look.  And left off the hanger.  I was thinking he would look sweet tucked into a little nest. 

She says "birdie" is quite settled in her new home.  I'm glad you like her Dear!  As they say....a birdie in the hand....

My work area is rather large, but the actual space that is uncluttered is well let's say, there isn't any. I have to get more orgainzed! I have to post a picture of my counter. I have seen a lot of crafter's work areas. Some are neat, but most are cluttered like mine. I want to go to the othrside and see how that works.
The bird is way cute!

He turned out great. Yes, how is it that no matter where or what I am working on, I end up completing it in a itty-bitty space or on top of my supplies....an interesting phenomenon for sure.

I am not sure where I bought the cards. It had a sale tag on it, no store name! Most likey Jo Ann's, Michaels or TJ Maxx. I just liked how they were very different and cheap, I mean inexspensive!
