...put together with scraps that are not straight. Why? Because life is not straight you get curves and dips and you just have to remember that there is always a little glimmer of hope, a little bit of happiness that you can find somewhere even something as simple as a bird singing and the sun shining.... it is there. I left a lot of blank spaces in the middle that I was going to fill with sparkly bits but I decided that you needed places to see your dreams, dreams, wishes and desires that need room to grow.
The bluebird has a stamped impression wing that you can see when the light hits it, as well as hand sewn beads that shimmer and might spark a bit of hope. With a clear eye stone the bird allows you to see clearly.
Ah well all this is mumbo-jumbo really but it makes for a good story and who knows it might help someone when they need it most. I know it really helped me to make it when I thought all my days were steadily going downhill. I just needed to find IT and I think I did.
Made with both modern and vintage scraps. Some scraps you might recognize. I both hand and machine sew. The back has a rod panel for a small dowel rod or string it up with ribbon and hang it..I am experimenting with some different backs to see what I like best.
This is appx 12"H x 15"L
