This weekend, I was working on my next project for The Quilted Fish....very exciting. She has a new line of fabric coming out soon...It's called Apple of my Eye. Can't wait! I haven't said anything because it was a secret, but I saw that Amanda announced it today on her blog so I figure it is okay to say somethig now! Her announcement came because Bazzill will be debuting her new line of scrapbook papers called Avalon. You can get a look at it here. What's fun is that--like her last line of scrapbooking papers was a mash up of Sugar and Spice and Sweet Divinity--the new line of scrapbooking papers is a mash up of Delighted and Apple of My Eye. I was really excited to see it, because I haven't seen Apple of My Eye yet.
Here is a sneak peek at the project I am working on for Apple of My Eye. I made it with Delighted and will make it again when I get some Apple of My Eye fabric. I really love this Delighted line. It is fun to work with!
I think this little birdie applique is so cute. It's from Bunnycup Embroidery. The set is called Tweet Thing Applique. Love it. Something happened to the beak, however. It's there, but you can barely see it. It is very small in the design, but a little too small on how I stitched it out! But doesn't that flower right next to his face sort of look like a beak? LOL. I will have to stitch it out again sometime. I had a few problems with thread breakage and bobbin issues in a couple of spots (operator error, I am sure...the designs from Bunnycupare really good ). I can't wait to show you more of this. I hope you like it!
And I can't wait to get my hands on Apple of my Eye!
Until next time,
Mama Pea
adorable little birdie Stephanie!

Adorable! At first glance it does look like a bird with the flower in the fabric as a beak. Then I looked closer and realized it didn't have a beak so I thought it looked like a fish or whale. Then I kept reading and you say it is a bird so I look closer. I can see the teeny tiny beak now. LOL! It is still adorable, tiny beak and all!

Very sweet, Stephanie. I like the name of the fabric line too!

This is so bright and colorful - adorable design. And...I thought the red beak that's on the fabric really makes it look like a beak for the bird. I wouldn't even have questioned it. LOL! Love it all!

That is really adorable! I love Bunnycup designs.

Adorable. I too thought the beak on the fabric was the bird's beak. I also thought you did all that stitching on the design, but it sounds like you didn't? Anyway, it is adorable.

Isn't that funny -I thought the little white with red triangle was his beak -looks like a beak. Sorry, don't see another...but I'm trying to guess..Is it a journal cover?

Love the little bird - beak or no beak, he's the cutest! And did you or did you not do the stitching around him (or her)? It looks like really heavy duty stitching and couching. Anyway, it is beautiful! Love the colors.

At first glance I thought the fabric was his beak too. He sure turned out cute and I love the fabrics. I really need to get me some.
