On Saturday, I set up the camera on the tripod, to take photos of the blue tits
the parents were tireless, flying back and forward to feed their brood
this is one of the chicks, impatient for its next meal
and still mum and dad flew backwards and forwards
reluctantly, I put the camera away, thinking that I would take more photos on Sunday ........ but when we came back from our walk, there was silence in the garden, no cheep, cheep, cheep as the chicks called for food. While we were out enjoying our scones, they had flown the nest!
so, what did I do to the little applique wallhanging? Well, I wasn't happy with the binding, especially the bottom left hand corner, so I took it off, and put new binding on. Much better!
I was delighted to receive another parcel in the post this morning, although this one wasn't squishy
it contained a little print, which I bought from here. I only ordered it on Sunday evening, so was delighted that it arrived so soon (click on the photo to enlarge it for a closer look)
back to the College in the morning - my students will be using fusible web for the first time. I have lots of baking parchment packed, to protect the iron and ironing board!
