Bluebird Out My Window

Here's a pic of Bluebird Out My Window from Brenda Gervais that I finished up for an exchange this past week.  I love the colors in this design!  I finished the edges with ribbon that I 'ruched' thanks to Vonna at Twisted Stitcher and her great tutorials!  The piece was stitched on 36 ct light khaki linen with the called for threads.  I did fix the wonky trim on the bottom before giving it away.  Now I am scrounging among my stash for more linen to stitch a 2nd one for myself.  


Can you feel the autumn stitching calling?  Even with the 100 degree weather we had yesterday, I'm beginning to itch for a Halloween stitch!   Have a wonderful weekend everyone!

    That is so pretty, Christine. I just purchased this chart and after seeing your lovely finish, I look forward to starting it :)

    Hope your weather cools down--it's a hot start to September here in PA, too!
