Let's get groovy! These fab feathered friends are easy to make with just a few straight seams and they make gorgeous pincushions, pattern weights, or sachets. Pattern includes three charts, plus illustrated step-by-step instructions and templates for felt accents.
Note from the designer: This was inspired by the traditional sampler motif of the "berry bowl" but I've filled my basket with birds and eggs! The bowl itself is more like a woven nest, to continue the theme (and give stitchers a chance to play with variegated floss).
This design is one of 12 in the Feathered Friends Collaboration. 12 designers created a birdhouse-inspired design for each month of the year. As you can see, mine is for March! I was so thrilled to include a little robin surrounded by some pretty dogwoods (one of my favorite flowers, for sure).
