Summer Birds, So Far

 

How bright and cheerful and fun is this?! This is my progress so far on my Summer Birds project and I have to say, it's turning out exactly as I had envisioned it and I'm having a blast stitching all these birds! I wanted a colorful jumble of birds in a variety of styles, and I think I'm well on my way to achieving that. Although I don't have many yet, I'm looking forward to getting these finished so I can begin working on my display. It will be a bit sparse at first, but I hope to fill it in over the rest of the summer. 

These just make me smile.

Hope y'all have a wonderful Independence Day and a safe and peaceful holiday weekend. The month of June was a little wild at the Wonderful household, but we made it through and I am tired! I would love to spend this long weekend in the sewing room, reclaiming it and getting some work done. We'll see. 

Enjoy the holiday and Happy Stitching!

  8. Your projects are lovely. I have a question for you. I am going through my collection of cross stitch magazines and have a bunch that I will be giving away. Would you have any interest in any of them? I have World of Cross Stitch, Just Cross Stitch, Stoney Creek and others. Maybe just the ones with birds and foxes? God Bless, stitchinrose who can never seem to log in. :o}
