The bird and I signed up for a class at Paper Crown for the end of January; it was going to be a great way to start a new year and rid of any possible holiday funk and stories from aforementioned events. Unfortunately, the class was canceled due to a snow and ice storm. I was disappointed, I was ready to struggle to make these honeycomb balls and now we had to wait 3 more weeks!
Finally, the class was rescheduled for the day before Valentines Day, which meant one thing, I had to make something for my bird in which I share a pod. Sadly, I did not take pictures of the item, because I suck. I did however, take pictures of my gift that she made for me. It is a larger, softer version of this.
How do I love thee? Let me count the ways:
- Raw edges
- fabric-covered button
- 2 beads (vintage!)
- seam binding
- luscious velvet
- Rouenneries fabric square
- Red toile
- Heart on the back that looks like it says "Je" but, it does not
- coffee stains
- V-notches
I am sanctified.
That is really pretty! What a nice little bird!

I have it on good authority that you, in fact, do not suck.
