OK, another month, another freebie. I have no idea why or when I designed this bird – you will probably recognise it as a parakeet – or a budgerigar, if you’re in Britain. It’s unusually realistic compared to the exotic, flamboyant birds I usually like to do, but there’s nothing wrong with realism in the right place! You can of course turn him into a blue bird – or indeed any other colour you like just by changing the colours of the thread you use
A realistic green parakeet (or budgerigar…)
So HERE is the file, in .pes v.6. He’s for the 4 x 4 inch (100 x 100 mm) hoop and he’s all embroidery – no applique. As always, if you have problems drop me a line via the “Comments” section and I’ll try to sort it out
Such a cute bird! Thank you!
He is a very nice parakeet. I think most people know these birds.
We had one, his name was Clyde. My girlfriend has gotten two, and named them Bonnie and Clyde, but Clyde was always pecking on Bonnie so she gave Clyde to me. He was quite mean, and not a pet to hold. We used to keep his cage open so he could fly around a bit, and he became more friendly over time.
We also had a Great Dane and one day he was walking around with his head up which always was a sign that he had gotten something, usually one of the kids little toys. But we were surprised when we opened his mouth and found Clyde, laying very still, unhurt and fine. We released him and he flew back to his cage completely undisturbed.
I should probably make a bird like him, blue.
Thanks for such a lot of memories and a darling bird.
Beautiful. We had a yellow one and a green one when I was a kid. She talked to them all the time. They had super cute names which I can no longer remember but they were fun. Thank you for the memory I had forgotten!
Love It!!!
Thank you!!!
