For the Birds

I like to help orphans - the fabric kind! I had 5 paper pieced birdhouses made several years ago for some workshops I taught. Here they are. (Scroll to bottom to see the quilt I made!)

Efficiency Birdhouse: 5" x 10"

and Room for One birdhouse: 6" x 10" (there are two in my quilt)

Room for One birdhouse: 6" x 10"

and the 60s A Frame - 7" x 10"

Two Door Cottage: 7" x 12"

Two Door Cottage: 7" x 12"

There are 5 orphan birdhouse blocks, one panel @benartex_fabrics in the center ("Welcome") from long ago, 3 birds cut out as hexagons - all needed a border. Yes! Modern Vintage: Treasured collection by Benartex was a perfect fit. Can't wait to quilt and finish this.

I really like seeing such beautiful orange. It's not a typical color I use, but this is awesome with the blues. Here is a group of charm squares from the collection. I'll be sharing more about the quilt I made with these in a few weeks.

For now, know that the birds in my yard are chirping sweetly seeing these lovely dwellings.
