So pretty and really cute!! I think it looks wonderful - the bird really seems to be sitting out in front of the branch!! :applesauce: :applesauce:

Thank you all :)
Aly, yes, I think the shading in the pattern made it really look three dimensional.

Finally I have got some money, so now I will have my first ever professional framing done. Can you, please, help me chose a colour? How would you frame it?

I think I would go for a dark brown frame, and a mount to match the fabric with a dark bevelled edge
