Embroidered Garden Birds - Sarah Perry

Embroidered garden birds on a patchwork garden

“I love the birds in my garden and each time a different species comes along I add it to my patchwork garden.”

Why not bring your patchwork background along and spend 2 days of relaxing hand sewing adding a garden bird, or two, to your own beautiful background.

These can be raised or flat and can be labeled (Sarah will bring her old typewriter with her)

Look forward to seeing your garden patchworks.
