Humming Bird Parchment Craft Pattern by Wendy Walters, Rainbow Grid Work Card with Flowers, Step Chart, PDF Download and 6 Backing Papers

Make Humming Bird, a parchment craft design by my mum, Wendy Walters of Gemini Crafts (© 2009). A striking design with a black-ink humming bird and embossed white flowers set in two overlapping ovals.
