The Hawthorn and Hummingbird moth is from a kit from Alison Cole. She discovered the moth on a trip to Utah when she was teaching here and said that she couldn't wait to stitch one.
It has dimensional flowers and leaves in the pattern but I couldn't resist making the moth 3 dimensional so that it could hover over the flowers. Alison's pattern has the top of the moth and the wings. I found photo of bottom of the moth and stitched the bottom and created legs for it. It was a bit tricky to put it all together. There are a few things that I might do differently if I was to do another one but I am happy with the way that I turned out. I put a green wire in the bottom so that it could hover over the flowers. Taking photos was hard but I think that you can see the full moth.
