All the talk I do about directional elements and then I have the bee heading right off the block but it was the only way it was going to fit. I really like the hummer and will pin some of that thread to the drawing and repeat it on something for myself..
You can see I added a lot of seam work and tried to repeat the circle (or arc) shape as often as possible. Also I loved the blue patch in the lower left and tried to use it in almost every seam to carry it around the block..

Hi Gerry that is one of the most beautiful pieces of work I have ever seen. The colours are wonderful. Ritva is a very lucky lady. Blessings
Great hummingbird. Lovely! Thanks for the comment on moving the color around. I can really 'see' that but it helps to have it stated.
Your work is such an inspiration. I love that hummingbird in circle. It is similar to a stained glass thingy I have hanging in my kitchen window.
I didn't know insect jewelry was popular during that period. Thanks for that info.
I know everyone says your block is beautiful...and it is. But, it is just the prettiest thing I have seen in a long time! Wanted you to know I think it is great!
Absolutely stunning, Gerry! Your hummingbird design is really special.
I agree that the colors in your hummer are perfect. I also love how the bird is within the circle, broken by it's wing...it's a lovely touch.
