Textile Postcard Project Week #39


June 24th - 30th 2018


Bluebird applique


I have never seen a bluebird quite like this apart from a necklace and earrings I had as a very young teenager. Bluebird jewellery was very popular at that time. This is definitely a make believe motif but would be suitable to stitch onto clothing as a decoration....perhaps as a ready made brooch.
It is machine stitched using cotton fabric and threads.
