Cobi wanted a romantic theme on her stumpwork RR block so I set out to make a "romantic" nest.. I wanted loose-woven, soft colors with beads etc.... It's not cut out yet of course but you get the idea what it will look like when it and the bird are attached... I am so pleased with the separate wing.... Whatta ya think Cobi???

Any bird would love this nest!! How gorgeous!!!
I love it! The bird looks like it might fly off any minute!
Gerry, your birds are wonderful!!! I really need to try your "felt" technique!! I would sure save me from a whole bunch of tearing out of stuff I just spent forever making!!!The wing is fantastic!!! It makes the whole thing so much more lifelike!!!
You ARE the Queen!!!

Oh! How wonderful!!! Should Cobi not like it (and I can't imagine that she wouldn't!) you could always send this my way! :) The whole thing is exquisite and having the wing attached seperately really adds to it!
OK, Gerry. Fess up. How did you make the nest? We all want to know.

This is just the prettiest piece of embroidery I've seen in a while...it brings a smile to my face and I long for spring...I love that nest!
It's adorable! And the expression on the little bird's face is wonderful. So you found a good use for that #3 Perle!
Fabulous Gerry! I am speechless!
Hugs,

I don't know what Cobi thinks but I think it looks fantastic! Love the separate wing, it makes the bird alive :)
Love the romantic nest too!
Such a sweet little vignette you have here Gerry... absolutely adorable! That wing really sets it off perfectly.
Just perfect Gerry, I am sure lucky Cobi will love it, I sure do!
This nest with bird is so adorable. Where did you find the pattern or did you make it up? Love it.
Smiles,Pat
