Love Bird

The sewing machine was still out so it seemed a shame not to use it. Since Gothic Arches have gone fortnightly I've lost the routine of joining in challenges. Their theme is Hearts for the next two weeks. Take a Word is Blackbird, so there's two challenges done, one to go, which is
Just For Fun......... That's if I get around to it..

Now where are those naked bunnies?

It's a great 'heart' arch! (I know what you mean about getting out of the habit with Gothic Arches; I don't even do the bi-weekly themes half the time anymore.)

Black, white and red are always special together and your interpretation on the blackbird theme is just perfect.

Effie, your blackbird is magnificent. I love the depth of colours with a touch of blue. Your arch/fabric collage is exquisite. Fantastic artwork.
