    If you're counting votes, mine will return your tally to zero. I'd leave them off. I think the block is plenty busy with the various prints and bird background (such great fabrics you have in your stash!). But then, I tend to be attracted to more clean lines. Could you applique those birds to a solid outside border? Love the pattern, by the way.

    I would vote no as well...but with a white center instead I would want a recount. Love the scrappiness.

    So yummy, Carla! Love it. I vote no birds - I think there's such great movement in the block and I would fear that the birds would become a focal point rather than the focus wandering out and around.

    I don't like the birds , I think they take your eyes right to them and you miss the other beautiful fabrics.

    Personally, I can't get enough of those sweet birds, and when they are not in the center, I miss 'em:)I like them being focal, both in the center and in the outer area, and think they are a wonderful "tie-in". Which ever way you choose will be the best! :) I also like Linda's idea :)

    Cool and fresh, looks great with and without... depends on how much washing the piece would get. I love it!

    Since it is small, you could always embroider the birds instead...

    I really love them! It makes the "wheel" look like it's floating...

    I like it better without the birds. And I really like that you sew the block in quarters without having to applique the round center.
