Tuesday Treasures

I've been sewing a lot of projects with birds as a theme at the moment.  And all the usual little chaps arrive each morning to squeak and chirp and screech until we fill up the bird feeders.

With birds on my mind I thought I'd share this delightful little brooch which I've had for many years.  I think I purchased it on a trip to Sydney from a country patchwork store, maybe Berrima Patchwork, but I can't be sure, it's such a long time ago.  I do remember I loved it when I bought it and I still love it now.

Do you have something you treasure to share with us today.  Please pop your details into Mr Linky and play along.


FABULOUS FREE STUFF

Here's another picture of the spectacular bird installation at the Essendon Quilters Show a couple of weeks ago.  And with that in mind here are some birdies you can make too.

These beauties are at Spool.

Felted tweety birds at Felting Crafts

and finally this charming little one from Pom Pom Emporium 

I'll be posting Part 4 of Home Sweet Home later today.

  4. I love your photo of your feathered friends having their brekky. What a sweet brooch you found Melody. I love birdies too and love watching their antics in the tree outside my door. I also love seeing them featured in stitching. Lovely post.

  6. Your brooch is lovely Melody, as is your photo of all the birds feeding at your place. We happened to watch an amazing documentary yesterday on the golden shouldered parrot up in North Queensland. It was so interesting and something for my hubby to look out for next time he goes to the Cape, as there are so few of them now. Tanks for the birdie links... too cute!

  11. I couldn't agree more about the beautiful sounds of birds. On my way into work this morning a couple of Kookaburras started laughing their heads off just to make me smile at the start of my day. And while the magpie is not the most pleasant of birds, their warble is just amazing and I love listening to it. Thanks for reminding us of some of life's simple pleasures Melody. Cheers, Tracy.
