I made another of the silk bird pillows yesterday, this time the Cardinal.
There were lots of people who were interested in my Cardinal Pillow. But I only have the one and it was sold before I even made it.
I still have the finch that I will make into a pillow next week. And I have two other silk pieces that can’t be made into pillows because of some of the materials in them, but I think I’ll make small wall hangings from them.
It’s always so interesting to me and something I don’t really understand, how I can have something like these silk birds for so long and it’s only now that I feel drawn to create with them. And that I found them in the attic after so many years, as if they were just waiting for the right time to show themselves.
It will always be a mystery to me and one I happily embrace.
The Cranes and Bird in the cherry blossoms that I’ll make into small wall hangings.
That Cardinal pillow is a stunner!
Might be time to hire an assistant or intern? Just an idea… Spread your wealth of knowledge! And I know the difference of not having to manage someone else.
I’ve thought of getting some help Judy, but I really can’t think of how that would work.
What wonderful finds, Maria ! You’re right, it does seem that they were meant to be found now.
They’re so beautiful !
Thank you Laura!
Maria, now that I see this close-up photo of the cardinal pillow, I am even more in love with it! I am soooo glad it was available to me and can’t wait until it arrives. Thank you for your artistry and fine work!
Well It should arrive soon Fran. I’ll check and let you know when you can expect it. Thank you!
