Welcome! I'm Brandy, mother to 5 darling kiddos and a cute black lab named Toby. My husband is in the Coast Guard so we've lived all over the place, turning each house into a home. I love baking, sewing, making cute things with my kids, and sharing what I've learned with all of you!
Birds!
Aren’t these fun?!?! I saw these on Obsessively Stitching and knew that my boys would love them. Aaron asked for a green one, and Dallin asked for a blue one. So last night, since Derrick is out of town, I got to work and ended up with a couple of more. They were just too easy to make!
The patterns and tutorials were great. I spent about 2 hours on the pig and all of the birds. The boys were very excited to see these when they woke up. Since I made the red bird and pig as well, Aaron was wondering where the yellow and black birds were, lol. I’ll have to make those too sometime, but I got tired last night.
Kaylee LOVED the baby blue one and so I made her a pink bird. She didn’t like it. She wanted one just like Dallin’s. So I made her a baby blue two-toned one and that sufficed, but I think she still likes his better.
She added her “blue twee twee” to the pile.
The originals were made from fleece. I bought a bunch of sheets of felt for mine and it worked out great, but will probably get fuzzy and pill sooner than fleece would have.

a long time ago I did a google search for these because my son was obsessed with angry birds. I don’t sew so I ended up seeing great ideas, but not doing anything. I love yours. You did a great job.
