Today Barbara came with Arden to visit me. We did not stitch, we only had fun. Arden was so cute. We celebrated our belated birthdays a little bit. She brought me a gorgeous pincushion filled with lavender. She knows that I love blue colours and also French designers. She stitched a beautiful design from Marjorie Massey, using silk. Look at the bunnies, aren't the cute? I'm so happy with my gift.
For sure I knew that Barbara likes the charts of Kathy Barrick-Dieter so I chose this one, which is called Brite Birds. To give the design an old look I used the 32 count Zweigert vintage linen, colour brown and I changed the DMC threads into WDW and CC. I wanted to finish it like a Hornbook so I used a chalkboard for the background. Fortunately Barbara also liked her gift:)

BeantwoordenVerwijderenI've admired these lovely pieces you both made at Barbara's blog earlier. Well done.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThanks so much for stopping by at my blog.
Both gifts look so pretty. That bird sampler is wonderful and I think I'll have to stitch it, too. And the bunnies are so cute. I love Marjorie Massey's designs.

I really like the brite birds pattern. I have had trouble finding it online. How was it a freebie? Did it come with something you bought or did you find it online? Great finish though!!!
