Birds and fabric

Meet Helen the happy Bird number two. Hopefully, today, she and her friend Pete, will get an eye and legs while I take the time to slowly enjoy this new applique sport. I still feel all thumbs during the ironing phase, but I like the hand stitching.

 Stash report

It's never my fault that I buy fabric. It's the opportunities I can't resist.

 Really, Star wars fabric? for 2.50? - 1.6 yards

  And Double Bubble? and words for 2.50? - I loved double Bubble as a child
3 yards

And Malficient? for 2.50? When my children asked what Disney princess I wanted to be I would always tell them Malificient. They would laugh and Oh Mom me.
3 yards

And Mickey Mouse?

And a bug? with words? I love words

And I have a friend who loves  this kind of fabric - birthday gift

And a buy one get one free jelly roll- the other jelly roll lives with a friend and has to ruin her stash report.


  So, since I can't resist opportunities, I need to lock myself in the house. Oh wait the jelly roll came by way of the magical internet... sigh..
