I had this block prepped for a road trip but I had to applique it. So now I will prep another block or two to go.I did have a marbled orange fabric for the bird wing and changed it after finding the Kaffe fabric in local quilt shop. I cut the wing and tail from the center of a large paisley.
Really made a big difference, just the zing thebird needed.
the block looks great and i love how you added the red on the bottom a great reproduction fabric :) YEAH!!!! I am not alone!!!!
ReplyDeleteI agree perfect wing fabric...
