Finally got a smile on this guy's face. I used an old tole painting technique that I highly recommend if you are painting an item you aren't going to be washing much. Do a practice piece first. Dip the back of a small paintbrush handle into the paint, then dot it on the fabric. Makes a perfectly round dot if you hold it perpendicular to the fabric. I like it.
Look Who else is lookin' at you...
Now for a plea (I've become more bold since the Seeds of Kindness quilt). I want to make this one (ahead even!) for February. I can swing all the fabrics except the blues. My non-Thimbleberries stash is not very varied. Is there someone who could send me 2 light blue pieces and 2 dark blue pieces that all coordinate for the birds? I will send YOU something in return. Email me for sizes. Something in the light to medium blue range would be good. The picture is fuzzy, but there are 4 different blues here.
UPDATE: This request has been fulfilled! Thanks to my e-friends who responded!

I am happy to help...but it would take a couple of weeks (or more because of the Xmas season) from here in New Zealand.
I would be happy to help you out! Let me know! I need to make more of the minis like you have. I made two each for my grandmothers. One of them is in a nursing home so I love the fact that you can make and hang little things on the wall that can be easily exchanged. Love them, BTW!
