Cross stitch bird patterns are loved by so many stitchers out there...me included! Glad to see you are back in the groove with your stitching and thank you for sharing with us!

Glad to see you back. I love the bird pattern. I have blue birds nesting in my backyard. Thanks for taking the time to share your stitching with us!

Nothing better than getting that stitchy bug back. I love your bird pieces. I really love the new fabric on the piece for your nephew.

There is a particularly happy bird who hangs out near our house - sings continuously!

The cuckoo bird is so cute. The fabric is gorgeous too. Congrats on your finish.

Your Cuckoo Bird Sampler is so pretty! I would like to do all of that series someday. I'm so glad your stitchy bug came back. Your birth sampler is stunning on the new fabric, and you sound so much happier about it now. The restart was definitely necessary. Enjoy your last month of school!!

Bird patterns are so lovely. We love watching the birds on our deck so those type of pieces are very special. I really love the Carolyn Manning project you are working on. Her designs look like so much fun to create. Will have to put one on my wish list.

I agree - Kerri’s Turkish Delight is fabulous, great choice for a new start. I love your Strawberry Bird start, so pretty. And your Moon re-start is quite an improvement. It looks much better. Great linen. Thanks for sharing xx

It was love at first sight with Kerri’s Turkish Delight conversion for me as well! I immediately stopped everything I was doing so that I could run to Evertote to purchase it. I am so glad that your stitchy bug is back-love watching your videos! I also love your fabric and floss combo for the Cuckoo sampler-since I started stitching last year, I have become quite the bird nerd and want to stitch all the birds!

Just found your channel. Love your stitching! I love stitching birds. I think I'm going to have to add Strawberry Bird to my wish list! I stitched Needleworker a few years ago and have it framed and on the wall in my sewing room. Look forward to your next video.

Happy to hear your stitchy bug is back! Love the fabric and floss you chose for your cuckoo bird finish. I’m joining in on Katie the Novel Stitchers book club and finished the book and enjoyed it, hope you do to. I was stitching on be like a crow while watching.

I love so many of Carolyn Manning's designs. I currently am working on Peacock Topaz. I hope you have a wonderful summer, you are almost there! I've been stitching on Pretty Bird by Artsy Housewife during your video. Study in PInk is so lovely too. I like to stitch any and all bird patterns.

@ALifeInStitches 24 күн бұрын

Love your choice of fabric for your first Mirabilia, its going to look amazing. I totally resonated with the issue of project bags not matching, I have the same issue....not sure why, but probably because I have so many different themes of stitching. Bird.

@kathytansey2486 22 күн бұрын

Loved the video! I think the Night sky would be lovely finished as a bell pull. If you see I’m sure it would be doable. I love that Marsh floss on your Bird design and it’s perfect with that fabric. I’m in need of a new book so I’m going to check out my local library for “ A Single Thread” I’ve never read any books by this Author but I’m willing to give her a shot! Thanks for the video and I’m glad you got your Stitchy bug back !🥰

@traceyporter6211 25 күн бұрын

Hi Cait and Birdie! Love your new restart on the bellpull. BTW I think the Strawberry Birds might be interpreted as either Bohemian waxwings or cedar waxwings.

@loftymakes 25 күн бұрын

Great Flosstube, I am working on Carolyn Manning's 'Mistletoe', I love the stitch and want the finished result but it is heavy going with all the counting and block stitching so I work on it between my many WIPs. Wow May break, in the UK our summer breaks are much later, end of July time, although I'm a nurse with no children so it doesn't effect me, haha. 💗

@FrenchyStitchy 25 күн бұрын

I’m here & stitching all the different bird patterns this year! I actually have Turkish Delight - but I’ve never seen anyone stitch it. Will go check out the Roxy floss co conversion & watching your project. I have the called for fabric already I will check my stash for the threads. Maybe I’ll put that on my New Starts this year! (The list keeps getting longer and longer) LOL

Happy that you are getting excited about your pieces again! I am stitching on Scrabble Board by Vivsters on Etsy... I'm stitching it 2 over 2 on 28ct so the letter tiles fit on the squares... my hope is that my sister & I can use it to play!

Happy to hear your stitchy bug is back! Love the cuckoo bird - I would definitely stitch that pattern! You started the perfect project for the book club! I attended this weekend of Stitch North and it was so fun! I'm sorry you can't attend this year and hope you can come next year.I'm stitching the Gathering Acorns pattern... kind of out of season, but I love it!

Thank you! Yes, I would say 95% of my projects are on linen, but I really loved the 20 ct aida that I used for the cuckoo bird! Take care!

I love Cuckoo Bird and have had my eye on it for a long time lol. Have you considered a flat finish on a board for your nephew's birth announcement? That may be a good alternative to framing. 😊
