Embellished with buttons and stitching

This months affirmation word is "Caring"

I wanted to stitch mine in blue because I have printed one of my Funky Feathers (#10) and he is a blue bird..... my inspiration is from a memory I had about an artist that was to draw what PEACE was to him. He painted a picture of a bird in a nest under the branches of a tree and all around him was a terrible storm, but that little bird was content and not a worry.....that to the artist was PEACE. So maybe a word for the affirmation should have been peace for this bird but I choose CARING.....because God so loved us (and cared) that he gave a way to find that PEACE.

I have these little blue birds printed on cotton already if anyone would like to add one to their work....they are in the Etsy shop....I actually printed them a couple of years ago .....I was doing some crazy quilting and embellished them with stitching...I have one on the cover of my phone case that I made and also a crazy quilt mini pincushion......just some ideas for you :)

Newsletters will go out today....I am behind in my work...Whats NEW ??

Enjoy and don't forget I would love to see some of your ideas

Peace
