ReplyDeleteThis wall hanging makes me think of my Mom. She is 87 now and still loves her cardinals. I love everything about this wall hanging. I really like the fabrics in the border, they really make the cardinal stand out. Thanks for the chance.
ReplyDeleteLove your comment Kelly! I feel the same way about this sweet quilt. My mother would be 100 if she were still living. She loved birds and I often think of her when I see cardinals.

ReplyDeleteKaren, this is beautiful! The thing I love most about it are the colors.....they just sing!
ReplyDeleteI am also a follower!

ReplyDeleteI love your quilt Karen - I wish we had cardinals here in the UK,I've never seen one!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on being featured on MBS!
I'm an old follower!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. Love cardinals just like you. They say if you see a cardinal it is the spirit of a loved one who passed visiting. I hope that is so because my parents both loved cardinalsand I have them in my yard. This is on my to make list for next winter. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteNice to meet you Karen...this is not the first time, but always nice to learn more. I love the color and the quilting in this piece. thank you.
ReplyDeleteLove your mini.. I live in Ohio and the cardinal is our state bird. I too watch them from my kitchen window, and against the white snow we seem to get so much of, they are striking.
ReplyDeleteThanks for a chance.
I am a follower... love your blog, your abilities, and your generosity.
ReplyDeleteThanks
I'm a happy GFC follower and I have ya on my blogroll so I can keep in touch quick!
ReplyDeleteI love the contrast of the red, colors in the scrappy border, then back to the red...hope that makes sense! I loved your pictures!! Esp the pic under the window. :)
ReplyDeleteWhen we lived in Toronto, Canada, we always had cardinals around our home and loved to see and hear them. Since moving to North Bay, that is one bird that we haven't seen and they are dearly missed.
ReplyDeleteYour hanging is lovely!
Hi, I'm Linda aka Crafty Gardener and I'm one of the volunteer helpers of the Grow Your Own Blog event. I'm just stopping by to see if you have any questions. Your site looks great and I hope you get lots of new visitors and followers.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to be entered to win your gorgeous give away. Cardinals are my favourite bird and we have many of them visit the garden.
ReplyDeleteI love the cardinal! And your quilting is wonderful.
ReplyDeleteI've been following you for a while on Bloglovin.
ReplyDeleteI'm with you on this whole loving the birds, fabric, sewing , crafting....:)
ReplyDeleteYour mini is breath-taking!
I left a comment on Moda Bake Shop.
ReplyDeleteI like how the charm squares frame the beautiful red bird and the berries add to it without detracting from the bird. Beautiful mini.
ReplyDeleteI pinned a picture on Pinterest!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your mini quilt...it's absolutely gorgeous. But what I love best is that it reminds me of my Mom and Dad. Their mission in life is to attract redbirds. In the winter when everything is so barren their yard is a sea of red. Just looking at it will make you happy on the gloomiest of days. They live far away and I don't get to see them often but you made them closer today...Thanks for the memories and the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteKaren, I just love your red bird and the red berries. The cardinal is our state and I just love it's beauty just like your quilt. Thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteKaren, I am a fairly new follower. I love your appliqué and have been viewing your tutorials. I would love to see how you made the cardinal.
ReplyDeleteCardinals are so abundant at my feeders. I just love to watch them. Your wallhanging is just spectacular.
ReplyDeleteI follow your blog.
ReplyDeletei love the quilting you did, it makes everything on the quilt pop.i am a hand piecer and quilter, but i love the machine quilting. i live in kentucky and the cardinal is our state bird too.i have cardinals that i watch out my living room window and over the years i have noticed something unique it seems to cardinals. while the female eats, the male stands as watchout for predators. thank you for a wonderful giveaway. babscorbitt@gmail.com
ReplyDeletei follow you via email babscorbitt@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteHow do you do!! I had to stop by via Moda Bake Shop to tell you what an incredible job you did putting that tutorial together!! Wow! It was the most thorough tutorial I've every read through. That said, I was particularly attracted to it because I am a birder, as well as a quilter (as a matter of fact, I was just this morning looking at bluejay wallhanging idea I thought I might like to make!), and my name is Karen, too!!
ReplyDeleteGenerally I peruse a blogs archived posts to see if I might be interested in becoming a follower, but this morning, I decided to follow your blog immediately. I am looking forward to the next time I take a break and can take a more leisurely 'scroll' through yours!!
ReplyDeleteOf course I pinned a picture of your beautiful work!!
ReplyDeleteI like the bird. I love quilts with birds.
ReplyDeleteWhat's not to love???!!! Bright & cheery, colorful & interesting . And your tutorial is fantastic - I learned a lot reading thru it. Saved it too & put it on my to do list. Thanks so much.
ReplyDeleteI love cardinals, we were the Coon Rapids Cardinals in high school. I love your mini quilt.
ReplyDeleteI am following with GFC. Thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteWow--I love everything about this little wall hanging--it's adorable! Thank you so much for a wonderful pattern!
ReplyDeleteI am an email follower!
ReplyDeleteI love that it has a cardinal so it would be perfect to make for my MIL. Also, the quilting in the background is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI have saved the MBS tutorial to use later, and left a comment on the MBS post. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteCARDINALS! yippee he would peck at the car mirror(dirty bird) and he would swoop in when I called as I also put out seed bell he liked so he got the idea to hang on the windows too and look in to see if his "meal" was ready! adorable quilt and a great opportunity to try out applique.
ReplyDeleteI just found you through Moda Bakeshop. This is a beautiful mini quilt and one of the best tutorials I've read in a while! I'm a sucker for anything with a bird on it.
ReplyDeleteLike you I am a lover of birds and quilts of all kinds. IT's my 1st time to see your blog but not the last. Thanks for the great tutorial. Flicsha

ReplyDeleteAnd I've pinned it too! Can't you tell I love this cardinal wallhanging, lol?
ReplyDeleteHow darling is that quilt?!?! I just love it! My favorite part is the cardinal of course. I'm a cardinal-aholic :) I also love the spattering of berries and your fmq - amazing!!! This would be SO CUTE hanging in my breakfast room, brightening up the place and making me smile every morning :) Thanks for sharing such a cute design.
ReplyDeleteI am a follower too!
ReplyDeleteLove the mini-quilt of the Cardinal and Berries. Born and raised in St. Louis, this bird was always a good sight to see. Now living in WA state where Cardinals do not fly. :{ Good step by step tutorial--I just might try to make those berries by hand applique.
ReplyDeleteI'm now a follower!! Took a look around your blog and enjoyed the tutorials. Thank you, Karen.
ReplyDeleteLove the cardinals in the little quilt, but grunge is one of my favorite fabric lines too.

Hi Karen,
ReplyDeleteI'm visiting from the Grow Your Blog party. You are very talented! Your Redbirds and berries quilt is amazing! I plan to look around a bit more and then be on my way to visit the others. I do hope you will stop by for a visit and enter my giveaway. Have a wonderful weekend! Hugs – Donna
I just found you through the Grow Your Blog 2014. You are so creative, thanks for sharing with us. I am a new follower.
ReplyDeleteI love your Cardinal. I have a thing for small pretty birds and this one fits the bill perfectly. I am thinking I am going to make this wall hanging. It is lovely.
ReplyDeleteI love this mini quilt. I t will be the perfect thing to make for my mom for Christmas.
ReplyDeleteI am a new follower.
ReplyDeleteI would love to be entered into your giveaway. I absolutely love the cardinal mini quilt. I will be making two, one for myself and one to give away.
ReplyDeleteAs a new quilter, yours is the first give-away that I have entered! I think it is probably the best! I'm so excited that I commented twice at Moda! Not even different comments, but the same! lol I am so in love with this and with Family Tree Pillow. I am making both as a set for my loving Mother-in-Law. I know that she will love them! Thank you so much for freel sharing your talent. I also have found your tutorials amazingly simple to follow! Your instructions are so clear, again, thank you.
ReplyDeletehugs, shannon
Wow, Karen! I can honestly say there isn't one thing I like about this wall hanging because I like EVERYTHING about it. Cardinals are my favorite birds and this one is so pretty. I love the berries and the way you appliqued them so perfectly. Of course, the checkerboard borders are my favorite way to finish a quilt. And then there is the quilting--Fabulous. The whole thing is just gorgeous! Thank you so much for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteLove the colors and the quilting!! Very lovely!
ReplyDeleteI started following you by email not too long ago. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI am a follower and I pinned your mini quilt on pinterest. I would like to see the layered version of the red bird as well.
ReplyDeleteKaren,
ReplyDeleteYour quilt is lovely from the design to the fabric choices to your lovely design, congratulations.
I'm also participating on the Grow Your Blog party but have a link to your blog from mine, I found your blog a few weeks ago and enjoy coming to visit. Your tutorial is great.
I am a follower via GFC. Thanks again.
ReplyDeleteI'm back!! Forgot to say that I am a new follower! And what I love most about your quilt. For me, it is tie between the subject and fabrics. But first place in my mind goes to the quilting!! It adds so much to this quilt! You not only piece wonderfully, but the quilting is fantastic! It really draws your eye to the bird in a beautiful way
ReplyDeletePlus, I quietly put a post on fb. I say quietly because I don't want my MIL to see it as it is going to be her bday present!
I left a message at the Moda Bake Shop. Thanks for the great tutorial.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful little quilt! We don't have cardinals where I live, so I get pretty excited when I see them in books, photos, and quilts.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the chance to win. :)
what's not to LOVE....it's applique! and Cardinals. I'm spending the day watching the Cardinals at the feeder in the beautiful snow here in Ohio.
ReplyDeleteGreat tutorial, lovely design.
The mini gives you a chance to have a finished quilt in much less time and the opportunity to learn new techniques . Love the birds too and this Cardinal is awesome.

ReplyDeleteI miss cardinals now that I live in the NW they were so fun to watch in FL.
ReplyDeleteI love the cardinals! I watch them in the bird feeders outside my living room window daily. As a matter of fact, hubby spent more yesterday picking up bird food than he did picking up my groceries! The other thing I love is the machine quilting. I have been working on my skills and I really like what you did with the quilt. I would love to get my hands on a starter kit! Thanks for the opportunity and thanks for the quilt!

I'm a new follower of your blog. I commented earlier about how geat your tutorial is, but have a question. How do I download the tutorial? I can't find a link or button to do that on MBS or here. Also, is there a link for the bird template that I am missing? Thanks! I really like your blog.
ReplyDeleteHi Skootchover - thanks for your kind comments, I'm thrilled that you liked the tutorial. To download the tutorial (which includes the bird template), go to the bottom of the Moda Bake Shop post, just under my signature and click on the "Printer Friendly Version" image.

Thanks so much... Karen

ReplyDeleteold follower
ReplyDeletethis is a gorgeous little quilt- I love cardinals - they make me think of my father in law who was a big bird lover and St. Louis Cardinal fan. If he was still with us, I would definitely try your pattern for him. Perhaps some day I will make it to celebrate his life.. Your tutorial is excellent- I went and left a comment on the moda bake shop page. My one recommendation would be to number the pages so that you could reorder the pattern instructions should it get mixed up.
ReplyDeleteRegards from Alberta,

ReplyDeleteThat is beautiful ! We share many things in common, besides our name . I love all things red including cardinals and fabrics. I will own the quilt either by winning or purchase :)
ReplyDeleteI love the pop of berries on the mini quilt. I love to make mini quilts because I can quilt them on my machine. Have never tried quilting a big quilt yet. I am afraid! Thanks, Kathy
ReplyDeletekdavis1@centurytel.net
Wow! This is such a gorgeous little wallhanging. Love all the colors you used and the quilting is fantastic. I would make this for a co-worker who is retiring. (I work in a high school and our mascot is "Cardinals") Thanks for the great giveaway and for sharing the pattern on the Moda Bakeshoppe.

What I love best is the lovely reminder of the Cardinal pair that nested in our desert willow every year in the high desert of Arizona. The outer blocks are reminiscent of the the colors and contrasts between the surrounding desert and the bright, beauty of these birds. Thank you for the reminder.
ReplyDeleteI am a follower.
ReplyDeleteI did pin it to my pinterest board if that is what you mean.
ReplyDeleteI love your quilt. I was in my sewing room and took a picture of a Cardinal on the bird feeder. I am a bird watcher. That is probably the main reason I love your quilt. Thanks so much for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI did leave a comment on the Moda bake shop too.
ReplyDeleteThis is truly beautiful. Can't wait to make it. Looks just like the pretty boy under my bird feeder in the snow.

ReplyDeleteHello Karen, what a lovely quilt. Cardinals are a blessing from above for me. They were my mothers favorite bird, and whenever I see one I feel her loving embrace, for me that is heartfelt as she passed away suddenly when I was only 10 yrs. old. Thank you for the memories.....
ReplyDeleteKaren, Just wanted to let you know I am a new blog follower of yours. Julie at The Crafty Quilter mentioned your tutorial on a mini quilt featuring a Cardinal, I just had to see it........

ReplyDeleteHi, I have left a comment on the Moda Bake Shop recipe page of your tutorial...It was great....
ReplyDeleteHi - I just love you blog. I have a cardinal that comes every spring and pecks on my bedroom window. If I move to another room he goes to that window. I don't know if it is the same one or just something they like to do. I would love to win the Cardinal mini quilt. Thanks, Nancy P.
