A temporary pause, and a freebie from the 1950’s.

I’m afraid you’re not going to hear much from me in the next few weeks. The problem is that at the moment I’m working hard on a couple of large commissions, which I can’t really make public - or not yet anyway. So unfortunately I won’t have anything new to post. However when things get back to normal, I will too, and carry on posting new work every week

 

But meanwhile I will try to keep up with the freebies, and here is one for May. The design is based on a style that was popular around the 1950’s - what is sometimes called “retro” style. I hope you can find a use for it somewhere - perhaps on a bag or cushion, or even on a jacket?

Thank you

Thank you Mia for the absolutely beautiful Retro Bird design!! It will be a lovely design to embroider on any item. I will look forward to hearing from you again when you have finished all of your commissions. Have a great week!!

The birds are gorgeous! Thank you for sharing the design. I hope your commissions go well, and I look forward to reading your posts again, whenever you come up for air. ;-)

The birds look mystical, perhaps they carry good tidings, and can bring happy days ahead. They remind me of the magical birds in fairy tales.
They are much prettier than the pigeon I have ready to sew,

Thanks for the beautiful thoughts and I wish you smooth times ahead ss you get your projects done.

I always love your birds and these are wonderful! I can see these on a garment for sure. Thank you and congratulations on your commissions!

I love the Birds from the past. Thank you Mia for your generosity in gifting us with your beautiful work. For those that don't use .pes format, there are free programs out there that you can use to convert from .pes to whatever your format is. Just do a search using google for "program to convert .pes to other formats"

Again, thank you Mia for your generosity. It is much appreciated.

[Sr. Kateri]

We'll pine for you and patiently prepare for a peek at the pretty project that has you persevering because we appreciate your professionally produced patterns.
