A special project . . . . .

Mexican Bird Mobile

I started working on this very special mobile at the end of February. My BFF was pregnant and requested a mobile!!! At the time I made this - his parents did not know the sex . . . . and everyone kept thinking 'girl'!

So I began . . . .

This is how I work ~ I have to have everything in my sight. 

To figure out what the heck I'm doing . . . . .

A total mess! And I need A LOT of Tootsie Rolls!!!!!!

 I had to figure out colors of the birds and if they would all match, 

different detail, etc. I went with the easy way, all the birds would have similar or same details in different colors! 

I started sewing and picking the colors. The options are endless so it's REALLY difficult to make a 'final' decision! (at least for me)

But ~ I did, then stuffed all the birdies with batting and tied them off. 

Finished Birdies!!!!! So - hard to pick out a favorite!

In the Nursery!!!! 

Looks SO perfect with the framed fabric!
