This is one of my brothers - the cabinetmaker. He's pretty chill, so the color is cool.
This is the rock climbing brother. The round colored dots reminded me of rocks.
My sister has never met a multicolored fabric she doesn't like, so her bird is made from multicolored fabrics.
My Mom spend a couple of days in the hospital this past weekend, so we are all concerned about her. They changed her medications, and she tires easily. She recently celebrated her 92nd birthday. I am under no illusions. I know I don't have a lot of time left with her, but she says she isn't ready to depart this earth just yet. I try to make every minute count.
All this has been happening in between the construction going on in my kitchen and dining room. It's going well and I am very happy. I'll be happier, of course, when it is finished and I can put my house back together.
If you want to make birds, they are an awful lot of fun. You can get my tutorial here at my Etsy shop. It's an instant download and you can get started right away.

Love your family birds……can’t wait to see what you do for your mom’s bird. Keeping her in my thoughts.
You have always made the moments count with your mom and I know you will stay the course. Renovations are always messy and a bit chaotic but here’s hoping the results will help you forget these moments. Super fun birds, btw.
Love the family. Your Mum, medication changes can be a nightmare, and mine have given me itchy skin, and extreme tiredness. Guess the cardiac team thought they would be better for me!!! Hugh's were even worse. and after 2 weeks of juggling we are finally seeing things getting better. Hang in there, old age is not for the faint hearted or their daughters.
