Birds for Tea

 

 "Even when a bird walks

one feels it has wings."

Antoine-Marin Lemierre

 

 

This Japanese teacup had lost its saucer

by the time I happened to purchase it.

 

I thought perhaps I'd share it

with some of my feathered friends.

 

 

 

This cardinal couple loved stopping by

 to check on their "tea."

 

 

 

Enjoy June!  It's slipping away.

Teacup Pincushion

Here's what I've been working on recently.

I felted a thrift store cashmere sweater to make the roses.

I also used some hand-dyed flannel I bought years ago at a quilt convention. It looks like wool, but is easier to work with for some types of sewing.  I used some for the round rosette.

The K&Company Button Brad finishes the rosette.

What do you think?

What are you creating?
