After months of work on these awesome stamped embroidery panels (northern Michigan residents may have seen me stitching perched by the windowsill of local coffee shops, or even working on it at the beach!), I'm finally finished! This was a simple, but long-term project that I really enjoyed working on. Cross-stitch is almost therapeutic, because it's repetitive, slow, and not too complicated...unlike the counted cross stitch I showed you earlier! I'm still laboring away at that one...
The fabric used was from a red-tag sale at Jo-Ann's, and whole thing was constructed with a muslin backing, cotton batting, simple piecing, and outline quilting. Let me know what you think!
If you're interested, the panels are 18X18 blocks by Jack Dempsey.

Absolutely lovely! I am a very big bird person!
ReplyDeleteAbout your fabrics, I still have them ready to go, try emailing me your address at kimberlysuzkuehn@gmail.com
So sorry this has taken so terribly long! I never received your follow up emails, and I guess the others I sent never reached you!
Can't wait to send these off to you!
xoxo Kim
Will do!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the compliment- I'm super in love with birds right now, and since my bf has recently decided that he loves to make paper cranes, the living room might just be getting a bird theme :)
Love it! The fabric looks great with the birds! Great job you crafty girl!
