Birdsong Berries
This trio of berries is inspired by elements from my collection of antique samplers, combined with the bird motifs.
Many of us enjoy listening to the songs of various birds - it would be a very quiet world without them! These berries feature the morning dove, goldfinch, and nightingale (plus a tiny owl).
The design and color palette are classic, making each a wonderful addition to any berry collection.
