Here it is!

My challenge piece should be almost to its destination by now, so I'm letting you have a look at it.
Remember that I was given a fat quarter of a really wild and crazy fabric (in my opinion), along with 3 beads and ~18" of 3 different ribbons. We had to use a recognizable amount of the fabric, plus all 3 beads and some of each ribbon.
When I opened the fat quarter of fabric to study it, the first thing I saw was the bird. That led to my design, and I'm very happy with the finished project! (And happy that I was able to mark this project off my "to do" list!)
Techniques used: hand applique, lots of hand embroidery, and hand quilting.
