Duck - Tina's Fabric Nook

This block shows a patch of corner grass with the strong stitching in light green on its border. This patch of grass is two dark green fabrics, one a mound on top of the other in the bottom left corner. Standing on the mound is a duck, just about standing up flapping and stretching its wings. On the breast of the duck is a large white S written in with white pen. The duck is a several colors. The bill is a yellow fabric, the head a deep green fabric, the neck a white fabric, and the rest (beside the feet) is a brown fabric. The feet are orange fabric. These are all stitched together with a tight salt-and-pepper stitching to look very much like a duck standing up.

Block-A-Day 326 – Super Duck

So here’s to you, Clark Kent of the duck world. Not sure if this fellow struts around the barnyard solving problems or touting his super-ness, but he’s sure a funny little delusional duck.

This quilt block shows a duck from the side facing left. The duck has a green head, a white collar, and a brown body. The duck bill is a small orange piece of fabric, the head a dark green piece of fabric, the body a small white piece, and the body is made up of three brown pieces (two for the wings). The feet are the same fabric as the bill. The wings are in mid-flap and are coming out of each side of the duck. Every piece of fabric is outlined by a black and white salt-and-pepper-like stitch. This is against a light blue salmon-patterned background.
