My favorite bird is a chickadee. Back in Northern Ontario I used to be able feed them right out of my hand. They were my inspiration for making these ornaments. At the risk of ruining the surprise for some of my family members since I’m sewing these for Christmas gifts I’m sharing these with you now so you can make them for the holidays too.
You can whip one of these up during an evening of watching television. I’ve put together a printable template so you can start sewing these as soon as you’ve got the materials.

Oh so cute…. are the kids helping?
Thanks! The kids aren’t helping with this project except for requesting more and more chickadees. We have plans for a ladybug and a dragonfly for teachers.
You are so talented Janna! This bird is beautiful.
