Two Finishes

 Two finishes this month: Oscar & Zoe were two beautiful parakeet birds I gifted by daughter when she was 5. Sadly, they passed away and I wanted to stitch them for her. I used the free cross stitch chart by DMC called Budgie and used my PC Stitch program to re-chart it.

This was stitched on 16ct Aida (Crystal Whirlpool color) I purchased on 123stitch.com and used DMC colors: 838, 3823, 906, 904, 907, 169, 3810, 307, 597, 3811.

I also finished this chart by Janlynn called Graduation Dreams. It was a kit so I used all of the materials that came with it including the 14ct Aida.

New Birthday Starts

 2 starts on my birthday: Footprints by Sandy Orton but I got the Bucilla Kit which includes 28ct evenweave fabric and DMC floss. The kit can also be found at the Kooler Design website
