Even birds want to learn to quilt


Today was one of those days we will be talking about for a long time. We opened the door as it was such a beautiful sunny day. That was our first mistake. I could hear the chatter of the birds outside, but I kept sewing away. I got up to do some cutting and I saw something fly in the door going towards the back of the store. A young sparrow flew in. We then had to search to find him. Sparrows blend into quilts very well. Ginny found him, he flew right into the window, but then kept flying back to the back of the store again. He landed on Lois' purple quilt in the back of the store. Ginny went over again, but this time, he flew right into the window, made a loud thud, and landed on the rug near the door. We stood there for a while, waiting for him to regain his bearings, but he had gone to the big quilt shop in the sky!
Let's not tell Lois there was a bird sitting on her quilt! :) I guess birds like colors too!
Have a great Saturday everyone! Watch out for birds!
