Birdie Stitches July BOM

I did get this block completed in July, even though I'm not posting it til now. The block is suppose to be embroidery only, but I've opted to applique, plus some. I was able to machine embroider the fireworks onto the block then add the applique birdies after. It's been a challenge each month trying to adapt Little Miss Shabby's pattern to my own applique interpretation. I think it turned out OK though.
