... if you can't fly?

Busy day today!
I woke up and it was doing this outside my window...

... so I had to trek to college in my snow shoes with enough supplies to last the journey. I was just hoping it wouldn't end up joining the ranks of the Donner Party!

When I finally reached College I spent all day in the sewing room making a bird, the wings alone took about 4 hours. It looks pretty nifty though...

I'm so glad it's done! I think I want to do my final one like this, although I think I'll put a bit of wire in the wings to give them a bit more shape and will try not squish the feathers so much when I'm sewing it together lol
