Spring Project

Hey, as long as the webpage exists, why not use it? Here’s a spring project that I posted on our Facebook page. Trace pattern onto 10″ square of mid-tone calico. Top with a 10″ piece of organza and place both (together) into an 8″ hoop. Using Weeks Dye Works overdyed floss or DMC Variations, stem stitch around design. With sharp-nosed scissors, trim organza around outside of stitched bird. Raveled edges okay. Finish: add hanging ribbon to hoop for display, or make a spring purse for little chick, a cushion top, an apron bib, or you tell me. Option: add long-stitch branch lines and small button ‘berries’.
