"Birds On The Wing"
Here they look adrift on a bank of snow in my backyard.
It is not easy for me to go out and take good photos right now.
Nor is it easy to do everyday things.
My vision is healing much more slowly than I had hoped after this surgery.
After the procedure on the first eye, I had a baby quilt pieced and quilted in two weeks.
This time is a different story.
I had planned to have at least two projects with these beautiful fabrics for you.
I am sorry that did not happen but I here is my project.
My top is done and I am working on getting it quilted.
Healing is one day and one stitch at a time.
This quilt design is my own.
I was inspired by these

I <3 this quilt in the making!
This is the top to my new spring sofa quilt.
It is a new pattern that I have created for these fabrics.
I am calling this pattern "On The Wing".
I carefully cut and placed all the directional fabrics and will be posting about this on March 30th.
More details soon!
Here is a block for the backing that I made from scrap triangles and fabric.
I sewed this into the back of my quilt ...

I love the movement in this pattern so much that I will be making again
it in these solids as soon as I am able.
This new pattern is in the test stage of development and I hope to release it soon.
If you are interested in testing, please send me an email.
Thank you for stopping by today!
Please be sure to fly into all the beautiful bird trees today

The movement in that pattern is nice, I really like how you did your tree bird focals within it, nicely done.
Well done! It's one of those quilts you stare at not just for the pretty fabrics, but for the beauty of the blocks and pattern. I love wathing the fabrics change the look of blocks
The quilt turned out beautifully. I love the pattern you designed for this line and adding the blues and yellows makes it really pop.
I echo all the lovely comments others have made and add my GET WELL QUICKER wishes! It's so hard to do what we enjoy when we have eye problems. HUGS!
The quilt looks so beautiful and the design is lovely! I hope your eyes get better quickly so you can get back to doing what you love! :O)
What a gorgeous quilt top! Truly lovely! I am praying for a speedy eye recovery.

Congrats on having your quilt top featured!! You pattern is beautiful as shows off the birds very well. I'm trying to figure out my panel... but I have a few birds up my sleeve that I'll be sharing later. Thank You for for sharing & may your eyes be better soon.
Toodles,

What a pretty, comfy quilt you created. Lovely way to display the birds. Hope your eyes heal quickly.
Very lovely quilt. You did a wonderful job!
So pretty! What a great design! Sending light, love and hugs that your eyes are better very soon.
Love your design. So sorry your sight is not healing as quickly as you'd like. Be patient. Praying for a healthy recovery.
What a wonderful pattern that you designed. It fits these bird fabrics perfectly. Hope your healing speeds up for you.
Love your projects! I Great layouts! I have done something similar, having to cut all my birds in the same direction, but the look is worth it!
I hope you get better super soon. Sending you a big hug from Italy.
Your design is stunning! Really showing off this fabric! Very clever use of fabric scrap triangles too.
Your quilt is beautiful even with your eye problems. You are so creative Pat. Take care of those eyes and you don't need to reply to me. Hugs Sandra
Beautiful fabric
Healing Hugs from Florida my friend....loving your quilt!
How precious our vision is. Heal fast! Spring is on the way! Love the blues in your quilt.
What beautiful quilts and patterns. So glad you could finish at least one. Hope your vision heals quickly. K-
Your own pattern - wow, it's great! The bird fabrics fit it so well.
beautiful,xx
Lovely quilt top - good pattern to show off the fabrics.
What a pretty quilt Pat! I hope your eye heals quickly !
Sew beautiful! Your quilt makes such good use of those fabrics. I loved seeing what you did.
Pat, I can empathize about eye surgery - the pain of eye surgery; the slow, slow recovery; and not being able to see worth a flip afterward. It's been 15 months since my one and only and I'm still looking for solutions for being able to see things I WANT (like cross stitch cloth). I'm blown away that you completed this flimsy. And the fussy cutting is superb. It is a stunner. I love the design. I'm partial to stars and secondary designs that appear, too. Great job any time, and particularly under the circumstances. Will you be sharing your design? Blessings and prayers for you.
I love the quilt, and such a great way to focus in on a specific piece of fabric. If you need a tester, lemme know I'll be happy to help.
What an adorable quilt. Love the soft colors! Sending you the best for a speedy recovery!
Your quilt is beautiful. Hoping your eye heals quickly.
Your quilt top turned out beautifully! Sending hugs for a speedy recovery!
Pat I love the quilt design and you have named it perfectly. You quilt speaks spring to me and I love it.
Pat,
I love your quilt. Your pattern works so well with the fabric. Beautiful work. I hope you recovery quickly. :)
What a lovely pattern and it suits the birds so well!
Your birds on the wing are beautiful!! I like that you showed your EQ design in your post. Thank you.
Love, love your quilt. What a fun way to use that fabric. Great job.

Lovely quilt you did a great job. Get well soon.
