It was very special to be invited to stay over at Susan Oh to Sew's house to join one of her stitching groups for the morning. While I was there Susan showed me how to make a kiwi bird block with foundation piecing. It was the first time I have ever done that technique. Thank you Susan.
This was totally the best timing since the Chookshed Stitchers Challenge is to work on my New Zealand Quilt. I have no idea what I am doing but this little bird will be in it.I visited New Zealand and bought some fabric there to make into a quilt. So now is the time.

Love to see all the kiwi being made. I designed it after my trip to NZ last November. Cheers, Louise
ReplyDeletePs, be careful, they are addictive….soon you will have a flock!
Cute kiwi bird. I'm sure you will figure out what to do with him. Maybe now that you see how easy it is you will make some more?
ReplyDeleteGreat Kiwi blocks Jenny, lovely to spend time with Susan.

ReplyDeleteCute little Kiwi's. It seems many of us are doing these birds to remember our trip to NZ.
