Nero & Easter Egg Hunt & Bird mug rug

April 2, 2012 by Teje

Hey guys!!! Nero here, again! I have so exited news to you – my dear blog friend ‘BUNK THE PUG’ is hosting a contest: “Easter Egg Hunt”! Yeeeeh!!! And guess what … I am a sponsor – wooow that sounds really impressive!

Bunk was asking if I would like to join the fun and I’m always ready for a game! Egg Hunting … that is going to be fun! So we are joining by giving a gift card to our shop ‘TEJESARITA’, and if you find all the eggs and are really quick, you can win really good prizes!

I am wondering where he has hide those eggs … we have so many birds in my garden, that I think I could find many, many eggs … or is it too early … birdies are still fixing their homes so I guess they are not quilt … I mean quite ready to have eggs. You know that we love birds! When we tried to think what to send to our friend to thank her about the presents she sent to us – it became a bird again!

We made this little quilt with bird in the garden because we know that Lori loves nature!

And behind the birdie is hiding in the leaves …

Because we had just found our first amazing sea glasses and some shells from the beach, we add few of them, too …

I haven’t been on the beach for a long time, because … hmmm there are often other dogs and I don’t like that … so I just show you what Teje saw on the beach …

Art of nature – I’m wordless!

So now what … I think it’s better you go for the ‘Easter Egg Hunt’ because the contest has already started. It’s not too difficult and you can win some really great things! Go go Go go now!!! I will support and engourage you! GOOD LUCK!!! You find the button also on my sidelist!

What about sewing? We have done something … finally … we just needed some special colour and of course few other basic materials. Can you guess what we have finished?

I give you a hint: it’s the green! And look we got also a great idea for a patchwork – splash spots!

I shall link at Quilt Story’s ’Fabric Tuesday’!

Last time I showed to you the orange-white mini quilt and I was just amazed about your wonderful comments! Thank you! Thank you! You are just the best ever friends! I’m so happy that you shared your thoughts about those rhombuses and teached me that they are ‘drunken squares’ - isn’t that fun! and parallelogramms, that’s greek by the way, that’s why it’s so difficult word!

Now I think I need to rest a little bit after all these human words and maths …

Hugs and kisses! NERO & TEJE

Your mini quilt is gorgeous, Teje!! Just right for spring. I have a bird just like that nesting in a bush just outside my window – every day he collects twigs and things to build his nest … he’s very busy at the moment! I love spring!

And again a lovely little quilt! Not quite the colors I’m used from you, but it’s great. The most beautiful picture this time is the ‘art of nature’. Simply beautiful. You really have such a great eye for beautiful things.
Have a great day!

  Thank you Dorien! I like to think that blogging has teached me to take better photos. Now I take so many photos to get few good shots to share with you! Every patchwork becomes different and often I miss some colours I would like to use. I like those leaves even they are a little bit too ‘soft’ for me.
  Enjoy your week! x Teje

Wow! That bird is soooo like a real life female blackbird. The way you’ve used the pattern on the fabric for the feathers is pure genious. I love the zig-zaggy legs too

  Thank you so much! We have also many of those blackbirds in the garden! In fact I forgot them when I made this birdie. x Teje

Nero it looks like that post wore you out. I can’t wait to see what your mom is going to do with those bright colored fabrics. Now get some rest Nero.

  Thank you Lori! I’m happy if you like the little bird! Birds are now so busy in the garden making their homes. Sun is shining and Nero and enjoy them selves outside all the day.

The Easter Egg Hunt sounds like fun, (of course we have so much going on right now, we will probably miss it ). The bird mug rug is beautiful. I like how it is detailed on the front and back.

After all that quilt-helping, Nero, I’d be tuckered out too. Tell your Mom she just keeps getting better & better!

  Thanks Sage! It is challenging to be a quilting assistant and a model – but we have fun! x Teje
