Do you know where Bodega Bay is?
It's in Northern California - a beautiful spot where the hills meet the Pacific.
It's also the place where the movie "The Birds" was filmed.
So - when I began to work on this vintage tablecloth, i lived in California, and gave it this name because of the beautiful birds embroidered on the cloth.
Do you see the bird?
I believe this tablecloth is a Madeira cloth, appr 50 inches square. I have been working on it for 5 years, with lots of stops and starts.
Next weekend it will be off in the mail to its first competition - the Pennsylvania National Quilt Extravaganza.
Good luck, Bodega !!!

Amazing tiny detail work on this one!
I see no beads. Is this one bead free?

Gorgeous! Do I see hand stitching in the more puffy parts?
