Here it is Sunday and time for the game to end....Mockingbirds (all together) is a type of bird. Now, a mocking bird is a bird that mocks what it hears. Mockingbirds are typically gray/white with beautiful tails....but in my world of primitive and the quilt I am creating, the birds are different colors and have hardly any tails.....(artistic license taken here!). I wanted to make sure that IF I named a quilt "Mocking Birds" that people would not confuse the "type" of bird and think I was crazy because of the colors/shapes I used. So, I see that you understood what I meant and I can name the quilt Mocking Birds.....ok, enough said on that. Everyone that participated will be receiving a free copy of "Mocking Birds" as a thank you.........as soon as it is printed. If I don't have your snail mail address, please be sure to write to me personally - piecemaker51@aol.com - so that I can mail you your copy. Thanks for playing along. I really appreciate it. Mocking Birds is a pieced fabric wall hanging with wool applique in the middle border.

If you commented on the original post about Mockingbirds vs. Mocking Birds - you will be receiving a free copy of the new pattern. I've received some of your mailing addresses, but not all. The pattern isn't printed yet, but I will send it to you as soon as they are.
Debbie - if your cat birds sound like cats then they are mocking them for sure! I'd love to hear that!
Hi Lynda, I just heard you had a blog! That's great, I love your patterns and am excited to see your new designs as you make them. I LOVE your new Mocking Birds quilt, I think I will have to make that one.
