I know I've been posting a lot of quilting this past year...but I still stitch! The pumpkin pillow in my latest Pumpkin Day post was finished in recent months, I just saved posting about it for that special day. There is a little project going right now:
I adore The Victoria Sampler's birdies. Too cute! The pine branches always seem to get the best of me, I can never get them placed as charted! Never!
I need to get this one finished, yesterday, if possible. Yesterday? Because OMG have you seen Plum Street Samplers new Sunday Mystery Sampler? AS IF I DIDN'T HAVE ENOUGH PROJECTS ON THE GO Paulette is gifting the lot of us with the rest of the 12 Days of Christmas designs she started in Just Cross Stitch magazine. Now, I love me some 12 Days and these are just too nice to save for later! I have fabric ordered from 123 Stitch! so as soon as it's here, wahoo! Just kidding about cursing over it...many, many thanks to our dear, generous Paulette!
Thank you for visiting my blog today!

ReplyDeleteYour buttoned birdie is very cute and the branch placement looks fine to me. Hmm! Off to check out what Paulette is up to, right now!
ReplyDeleteBirds and branches are both looking fine. Love VS designs - have a number of her hearts.
ReplyDeleteBranches always get the best of me too! Just so easy to get off track a stitch or two. The good thing is that its never really visible.
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous design! I think your branches look fine :o)
ReplyDeleteHugs xx
so cute ♥
ReplyDeleteIt's nice to see your cross stitch, cute little birds.
ReplyDeleteOooo love that little Robin :-)
ReplyDeleteI know, i thought the same thing about the new SAL, but it looks so lovely
how can we resist, lol....I'm off to print it off now :-)
Those little birds are so sweet! I am also excited about the SAL :)
ReplyDeleteVery sweet project you are working on. I too saw the 12 days SAL - it looks lovely, I have saved the first part and debating if to order the fabric... ;)
ReplyDeleteOh, I love these buttoned-up birdies. Great stitching.
ReplyDeleteThis is so sweet, I love red birds.
ReplyDeleteBlessings

I've got the SAL printed off too ... will I have time this year to do it??
ReplyDeleteLove your little birdies and I'm another one who couldn't resist the SAL!
ReplyDeleteI love 12 Days designs too. The good news is that each one is a quick stitch. It only took me two days to do the first one.
I love your latest work in progress - such a sweet little design... Your branches look fine to me.. Lol, I "cleared the decks" when I heard about the SAL... When I shall stitch it who knows - but until I do I shall just coo over it... I have always wanted to stitch a 12 Days of Christmas but couldn't find one that I was entirely happy with - this one is as near to perfect as I could want:) Take care now x
ReplyDeleteThis bird is a new pattern to me - but I just love it. Birds always remind me of my mother and this one in particular does. I'm excited about the Sunday stitching too! blessings, marlene
ReplyDeleteBeautiful robin.
ReplyDeleteI´m also doing Sunday Mistery Sampler.

ReplyDeleteI love the 12 Days of Christmas from Plum Street - so lovely - and what a generous gift from Paulette. I. Any not fpget it stitched this year, but it's great to have it for the future.
