Two (or in this case three) Birds with one stone

 I started a new hand applique and hand piecing project yesterday. Finished the first block today. Have second block prepped but not started.

I am doing the Dear Hannah (did the Dear Jane a few years ago). Here is block A1. I finally cut into some Ricky Tims fabric for this block. I will use alot (maybe all) of his hand dyes in this quilt other then the background. We will see as I go along. But it was amazing to needle turn!

I bought that book back when I was piecing the second of my Dear Janes - I don't know why! I was so thoroughly tired of small sampler blocks by the time I finished the second top that I never even opened up the book a second time.
Have fun making your quilt!

I guess I've never heard of the Dear Hannah, but your block is amazing. Love the little birds!
