I have been doing a "block of the month" project, along with a few friends. Last night, we had a little stitching party at my house to work on the March block.
The pattern is free online from this site: Little Miss Shabby
I am now caught up to date with my Jan, Feb, March blocks. I just took fabric from my stash. I have so many other things on the go, so I didn't want to buy more fabric for another new project... I told myself that if I could find enough suitable fabric in my bins then this project would be a "go!" If not, I would pass.
I don't know where the finished quilt will go. Depends on how large I finish it. The pattern calls for it to be 52X66 when complete. This link will give you an idea of the finished project: Birdie Stitches Layout.
January
February
March
Since the March block wasn't my absolute favourite.... I borrowed Kim's sketch with a cleaner rainbow, adding a shamrock, and using the January birdie (because he's fluffier!). Thanks, Kim! I added the little shamrock to his chest and did 3 lines of stem stitching to pull in more green.

Your blocks are looking so cute! I like how you changed the march one.
Thanks Cindy! The March block is mainly Kim's design. I loved her idea of using the January birdie because he is the best shaped bird so far! This project is more fun than I thought it would be :)
those are adorable Sarah!!!!! I love the birds!!! Great idea to use up your stash too!! Can't wait to see the finished project.
It's fabulous Sarah! The colors are really great together!
looks great Sarah. I'm jealous that your birdie shamrock looks like a shamrock lol.
