Do you like the birds in the middle?..... cause they ain't sewed on yet if you don't.
Let me know what you think, 'kay.

  2. 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.

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

  4. 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.

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

  8. 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 :)

  9. 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...

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

  11. 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.
