Dream Bird Bundle 1 includes the following birds: Poppin, Sky Trilling, Dovely, Purlin Dipper and Crested Vitch.
Make a start on your own Dream Bird aviary using needle-turn applique and simple embroidery embellishment. These adorable birds can be used on quilts, cushions or clothing. Or why not collect them all together and make a fabric book like Jo? Fabric Book instructions are available as a separate pattern or FREE with the Dream Bird Bumper Bundle of 10 patterns.
This 28 page PDF pattern contains templates and instructions to make five 8" block (motif size 4½" to 5½"). The pattern includes full embroidery stitch guide, extensive needle-turn applique tips and instructions for raw-edge machine applique. This is one of a series of Dream Bird appliqué patterns from Jo Avery, and can also be purchased singly or as part of 'Dream Bird Bundle 2' or as part of the 10 pattern Dream Bird Bumper Bundle.
Please note: Each individual pattern includes 8 pages, 3 of which are duplicates. The duplicate pages have been removed to reduce size of download. For the full 8 page pattern return to the first pattern in the PDF.
