This month the color for the
Rainbow Scrappy Challenge is green, and the birds for the month are lovebirds. I played catch up during the week and made a
Pukeko (Purple Swamp Hen) for a purple bird for the month of April. I have been wondering how all these birds will come together, so I gathered them together for a group photo...a task that is much harder than herding cats!
And yes, the bird gathering was photobombed by an owl who belongs in a different quilt! Feel free to insert any one of Vernon Dursley's tirades against owls here. But please try and forget about the owl. Really, just try. I accidentally put the finch on the wrong background, so I will have to redo that one. I may also flip him in the other direction because almost all of the birds are facing in the same direction! Plus the pukeko is being very vocal about not wanting to be the size of a goldfinch. And if I make him larger, maybe he can chase away the owls.

Wow. Just Wow. That is going to be an amazing quilt!
That is alot of lively chatter that you get from those cheeky birds. Love it.
Well done.
Beautiful blocks. Puzzling them together will be well worth it in the end.
You might make some other (wrong) colored backgrounds and add them into the mix, then this one will just be one of the wrong way birds. Just a suggestion.
Love the birds, especially these two.

Your blocks are wonderful. Love these new ones.
Love the Love Birds! (hum that to the tune of a disco song!)
The owl is creeping me out so I have to leave your blog and go home for today.
The owl is eyeing the rest of those birds as if they're some kind of buffet set up just for him...
Love your birds - I can't wait to see what pops in next!
Well, I think the owl should stay. STAY! Good owl. The whole kit and kaboodle is so enjoyable. I even like the blue background, if you add in another two. LeeAnna
They do look fine all together and love the owl keeping an eye on things! Maybe the pukeko is a juvenile??? This would account for his small size!
You're so funny!!! Love all your birds - so bright and colorful and happy!!!
Well, I love your birds, but those owls need to be banned from the sewing room. I had no idea what troublemakers they are.
That's a lot of bird brains all in one place. I think I work with a couple of those. Don't they wake you up in the morning with all their twittering? Pukeko was a new one on me. While we are twittering away...gosh, those are all so darned cute. Are they going to be in the book you are writing about all your critters?
The lovebirds are so cute!!!! I think your quilt is gonna be amazing :)
