MSED: Bird a Day #91 Bird from Mexico, Maybe

On our way to visit our daughter we stopped at this cute little Mexican restaurant. They had a couple of these giant parrots. Do they make them in Mexico; I don't know. They also had the best chicken enchiladas!  Yum! But,I learned an important lesson: Don't stuff yourself with a plate full of chicken enchiladas while on a road trip. I had heartburn for two days.

I don't know if I really learned my lesson. In the same situation I might just do it again.

Marika Makes: MSED: Bird a Day #90 Tiny Knit Chick

I got the pattern for this tiny chicken from Craft: Here is the link to the free pattern in case anyone would like their very own itty bitty chicky http://blog.craftzine.com/archive/2011/08/project_excerpt_teeny-tiny_moc.html I altered the pattern slightly, I made mine wave "hello" and I didn't give him feet. I used some really nice wool/silk blend yarn that I had left over from some mittens that I never finished. I stuffed him with part of a cotton ball. It only took me one episode of Breaking Bad to finish him. Gotta bounce.

"broooawk"
