Should I add the birds, partner?
I've fused and cut the bird silhouettes and positioned them on the quilt (though I think I'd move the top right bird up one circle). I'll quilt in their legs while appliqueing. I'll raw-edge applique,probably straight-stitch given the detail. But are they too much? Would you want it with or without the birds? Or maybe just one instead of 3?
