Continuing on with the parade of handmade, I present days three and four in the Twelve Days of Christmas ornament series for Robyn. (Here are days one and two.)
I went ahead and made two ornaments this year because I figure twelve years is a long ever lovin' time to wait for the complete set.
*No, that's not a typo up there in the title. It really and truly is colly bird.



These are both beautiful - well done! :-)

Would that I were the happy recipient of these beautiful ornaments. Well done - as ever!
ReplyDelete*snicker* I love cowbell! ;)
ReplyDeleteLove the feathery fowl you made is year. They are beautiful!
When when when will these be available as patterns? I LOVE these!
ReplyDeleteThat's a resolution I could live by!
ReplyDeleteHey, y'all. So sweet, thanks a bunch. In answer to the question 'when will this be a pattern' I have no definitive time. I have a pdf pattern as a goal, but can't decide if I will finish the series first before releasing the pattern or if it will be better to issue the pattern in collections of two or three ornaments a piece. that idea seems to make more sense, at the speed I'm going.
ReplyDeleteI always thought they were "calling birds"...good to know the truth :). I love the 12 days of Christmas ornaments that you're doing. They are all so wonderful. And what a fun set that will be, eventually ;). Happy 2012! I hope you and your family are well and wonderful. Have a great one!
ReplyDeleteBest. New Years. Resolution. EVER.
ReplyDeletexo,

Yes. Release a pattern, in collections. Go! My husband was looking over my shoulder and saw these little guys and said "Wow. Those are incredible, look at all that detail! They probably took forever." And he's right. And they are. And they probably did. And they are amazing. I love them. All four (and the other eight to come.)
ReplyDeleteHey, guys, thanks so much. I'm so behind in my own set now. I'm missing day one and day three.
ReplyDeletepink, thank you! yes, the more I think about it, the more I think that's the way forward. Yes. Took. Forever. But only because I have to figure it all out as I go along and build in time for design remorse. If it were a pattern you could just skip all the sketching, second guessing, redos, the endless felt staring and the ripping out of sequins. Much quicker.
I love your birds! Found them on Pinterest!
ReplyDeleteLove how you have numbered them too. Cute!
