Chickadees
This contribution to the SAQA Square Foot auction is painted with dye thickened slightly on an alginated cotton, embellished with sparkly sheers, and quilted. During the wintertime one of the most cheerful birds were the little chickadees who didn’t seem to mind the cold weather or snow and hopped about from tree branch to another hunting seeds. Mom always tossed out the bread crumbs from the huge plate of toast she made every morning in the oven–they busily cleaned them all up but never seemed to argue with each other over the best crumbs.
