Fully Finished Gallery #5

I finished stitching Just Nan’s BlueBird Tweet back in June 2015.  I finally assembled it last month.  I was surprised that it would stand up on the wire legs.

I already showed these but they were finished last month.

Happy Dance and a New Start

Last night I added the beads and did the back stitching around the outside of Just Nan's Bluebird Tweet.  I love how colourful and summery the bird is.  Not sure when I will have time to assemble it, I'll add him to the "unfinished pile".

I wasn't tired last night so I started a new project.  It is a SAL with Wilma (owner of Stitcher's Place) and Leigh (one of our regular cross stitch club members).  Tiny Modernist is coming to my LNS in July,  so she created an exclusive pattern ... the front facade of Stitcher's Place.  I'm stitching mine over 2 on 28ct white evenweave.   I am starting in the middle around the front door.  I will not be stitching the floss or hearts around the house.  

Bluebird Tweet update #1

I finished all the cross stitching.  Tonight I will put on the beads and maybe get the outline back stitched.  Then it will be ready to assemble.

Bluebird Tweet

I started this a few weeks ago, but haven't been stitching much.  Before the weekend, I only had the blue outline of each side of the bird.  Here is my progress from today.  I'm stitching on 28ct light blue linen.
