I love the basket of flowers and the little bird!
In the book, this is turned into a little pouch for keeping sewing supplies in, and that's what I've been working on the last couple days.
I decided to use the scraps from the zipper pouch I finished a few weeks ago to make the patchwork part of the pouch.
After layering the front and backing with some batting (these pieces are about a fat eighth size), the next step is to add some hand-quilting to the fabric areas. I've marked a grid to quilt with Ecru perle cotton thread, size 8, and that's what I'll be working on today!
Sharing at Quilting is more fun than Housework for Oh Scrap! and at
Kathy's Quilts for Slow Sunday Stitching.

That is going to be one cute pouch. I too love that little birdie. Can't wait to see the finish. Have a good Slow Sunday Stitching!
I love this. I am loving see your embroidery and every time I do I want to go grab mine and get back to it. Then I think hmmm just where is it? Because of the renovations, and so I leave it again...
Sweet wheels! Looking forward to seeing your finished pouch.
What a lovely Spring-like embroidery you've finished! Nice work;))

I agree that little bluebird and the flowers in the basket really spruce up that bike. Looking forward to your finished project!
This is going to be an adorable pouch! Great stitching!
Lovely work! And a pouch is a great idea for using it. Have fun with your hand quilting today!
love that bike!
What a fun project, the bike is really sweet.
SEW sweet, Diann!!
Lovely little project. The bike and bird are very cute!
A fun little project. Bikes and birds make me think of warm summer days!
Lovely embroidery, looks tiny, no ?
That embroidery screams summer to me! How adorable a little pouch from that will be. Happy stitching.
I love this embroidery! It is so beautiful and it becomes a handy pouch for the embroidery. I also made one a couple of years ago. Have a nice week!
The flowers in the basket and the happy blue bird are lovely bike accessories.
How pretty your bicycle pretty is. Wouldn't it be lovely if we could all get on our bicycles, with flowers in the basket and little birdies chirping freely; and go for a lovely bike ride in the park.
I adore that little bluebird. Thanks for linking up with Oh Scrap!
I love that bicycle. The bird is adorable and the flowers are so pretty. I like the way that you are finishing it too.
