Looks interesting! Will look forward to what you are going to make! Isn't it fun to choose fabric that looks like different bird's feathers?
mary:
It is great fun and this was partially inspired from your interests and mention of fabric choices for various birds at previous times. I've kind of set myself up for I shall have to follow through on this, won't I. :-)
I think all great artisits get their inspiration from nature. How could you NOT with such beauty surrounding us. What a perfect match - the fabric, thread and this beautiful bird!
starlings get a bad rap at times, but i do think they are such pretty things. great capture.
Lovely poem! And are you making someone, yourself, a starling garment? Wonderful connection!
Deborah:
Hopefully it will be a Starling upon a landscape of fabric but other than that its proposed use is pretty undefined. My personal creative rules are pretty flexible but I have been wanting to create something from fabric for quite a while now... so we shall see what develops :-)
Very nice! What will you make?
I love reading the poem, seeing the photo and then the fabric! I love being inspired and your blog shares inspiration with all of us! Thanks!
What an inspiration! I hope you'll share the finished project.
:-D
I'm glad they took time out from my bird feeders to serve as inspiration Ann...
Wow...soooo love how you think...I love the fabrics you picked out..can't wait to see the results. I did one on american robins. just click on americna robins on my label list!! Do you have an idea of what you are going to make???
I never connected stars and starlings before, but now it seems obvious. I'm glad you pointed out the beauty in a "common" bird.
I never much cared for starlings but your photos changed my mind. How beautiful!
