I can't stop with the birdies! I love this one. The colors, the size, everything. I pulled my American Jane fabrics out and used them in the patchwork border. I think they look great with the tree and birds. I love the vintage look of these prints.
I used 1/2 inch hexagons. The littlest little bird is smaller than a dime. I have so many ideas swirling around in my head with these little peeps, so you'll probably see a couple more of these soon. I am neglecting my Farmer's Wife blocks and other quilty things but these NEED to be made :)
Happy!

I love that hexagon tree! Of course the birdies are great. That really goes without saying and the whole thing is making my brain really think because it is so inspirational!
I adore how you used stitching for the tree's trunk and bark. I *love* that scribbly stitching!
Simply adorable.

This is the cutest darn thing ever! I love the whole "sketching" idea-hope you don't mind if I "borrow" it sometime!
Your Quilt is Amazing!
The Hexies in the tree are inspiring!

A. Freaking. Amazing! I love your little quilt, Erin! You are one cleaver and crafty birdy!
I was about to send my friend Jenna of SewHappyGeek the link, since she's loving hexies right now and wrote a brilliant hexie mug rug tutorial for my blog, but then I saw your link for the {sewbeeit} quilting bee! We're both in it too, so I thought she MUST have seen your beautiful hexie tree already. SO ADORABLE!!! I'm thrilled I found your blog, you do such beautiful work. Go hexies!!
This looks so FRESH! VERY cute!
Beautiful.
Oh my goodness these bird quilts are "sew chirpy"!!! LOVE IT!
OMG this is the cutest thing ever! I think I could accomplish something like this...maybe?! I'm a cardmaker and haven't quilted in a VERY long time, but you've given me inspiration!
Peace & Luv,
Jeannie
