I finished one of my unfinished projects. I do not remember who th e design is by, but it was supposed to be iron on applique and then stretched on an art canvas. The iron on did not stick, so I ended up stitching everything on. My Mom loves cardinals. The backing fabric is from a piece of fabric that has lots of cardinals on thatmy Dad got many years ago to make something for my mom many years ago. He became ill and passed before he could do anything with it. I forgot to get a picture of the back and I have not put a label on it yet. This is my lovely 89 you mom! I surprised her with it by hanging it in my living room. It only took her about 15 minutes to notice it and claim it. She didn't let it out of her sight till she got it back to her apartment. Lol.

Beautiful....my mother also loved cardinals. When our little great was only about 2 she used to get so excited when she saw the cardinals out at the bird feeder. She called it Daddy Bird, and the female mommy bird. we were lucky enough to see some little ones out after they hatched.
Great fabric to put the cardinals on. Lovely work.

My mother loved Cardinals as well. They are beautiful birds. Your wall hanging is gorgeous, and I can certainly see why she claimed it for her own. The fact that you were able to use fabric that your dad bought with her in mind makes this all the more special. She will cherish it for sure.

Absolutely gorgeous! I did a design of a cardinal in the center of a quilt someone my son works with in remembrance of her deceased father. She said he loved cardinals and would make her think of him everytime she lays eyes on that quilt made of his shirts also. I enjoy the thought so much. My mother enjoyed all creatures except the Blue Jay in which she called little thieves. She fed peanuts to the squirrels and the Jays stole them.
