Nancy your attic windows should be re-named Picture Window as it is worthy of a view out anyone's front window! It's a lovely rendition of this panel. Did you find the printing on the panel to be wonky? Great job lady!

I bought mine from Nancy's Notions. She has one in her latest catalog that is different from the one I bought that I am going to order.

If you look at this link to the panel at Nancy's Notions, you can click on the second picture that shows how it should look like sewn together...like a whole tree with all of those colorful birds in it:

Does that help?

This is lovely! This is exactly what I want to do. I hope I am clever enough to copy yours! Thank you so much for sharing such a beautiful sample.

My Beautiful Birds wall hanging is done!

As I said above, I bought this as a kit. If I had it to do over again, I would have used a darker shade for the blue; I think it would have looked more like windows if the blue and green were not so close in value. I also think my stippling looks pretty good on this one... I am rather stippling-challenged (too random for me, I like order)
