I spent a lot of quite and thoughtful time this weekend. I was able to finish my first block for the
Birdie Stitches Block of the Month
Wow, I have been away from embroidery a little too long. I need to work on my skills. I hope by the 12th month to have it all back again!! But this was such fun and I did learn a few things on the way. I used 4 strands of floss, a stabilizer to hide my mess and variegated pink floss for my bird. As you can see I have made my block for February. I did stitch a 1/8 inch seam all around the border to avoid fraying.
Come on February!!
