The Needle’s Notion “Birds and Blossoms” chart

This is one of the latest designs and recommends a 32 count natural linen but could be done on aida sand uses DMC threads plus 3 WDW threads which you can convert to DMC if your wish. The stitch count for the large birdhouse is 191w x 238h.

The small birdhouse stitch count is 142w x 32h. The stuffed pinkeep birds are 83w x 58h, and the finished size of the birds on 16/32 count is approximately 3 x 5.

NB. If you wanted this to be made (as the picture) but don”t do the finishing (making it up ) a lady called the Lancashire Stitcher can do this for you. It is worth you looking Lynn up on her website. I also love a lot of these designs but can’t finish them as is intended and delighted someone has decided to set up a business to do just that.
