The image of a small bird perched on a vine growing around a circle with leaves and flower buds made us all gasp. Add to that 3 blocks of a slightly different Block3 were required and 4 of the border and posts.
We were given 2 months to complete this task.
The question of how to successfully make that ring was discussed and many inventive ways were posted on the Yahoo site. As I did not have a lot of my chosen fabric to cut into for my rings, I needed to use the least amount of fabric as possible, so decided on bias strips. My mini-tutorial for this is below.
My bird turned out a little bit different to the others, as the fabric I used gave him a rather "Steam-punk" appearance. I also gave him some different legs and up-swept wings. I must admit, I am rather pleased with him.
