Sunday Stitching

Sunday afternoon is usually my time to work on And They Sinned, but I had been prepping fabric for some other projects and I developed a touch of startitis. I actually started TWO new things, but they are both small, so it's ok :-)

The first picture is a design for a biscornu. It's a freebie from kissycross.twoday.net and I'm stitching it on 32 count Country French Latte linen, with DMC floss. I love the colors in the piece. It was the second piece I started, but the photos loaded backward and I didn't feel like fooling with them to get them in the right order.



The other one's a little harder to see. It's the Red Bird ornament by Crossed Wing Collection, from the 2007 Just Cross Stitch ornament issue. I'm using the called-for 28 count linen with DMC floss and I've about come to the conclusion that the red linen is almost as much of a pain to stitch on as black! It'll be cute when it's finished, I think.

It looks very nice. I tried the link & it don't work. I can't wait to see how you're doing with this one ~ Dawn ~

That biscornu looks adorable, Karen. And I'm bummed 'cause I couldn't get the link to work either! The Red Bird ornament will be pretty on the fabric you chose!

I love Red Bird and can't wait to see yours. It may inspire me to stitch it for myself this year :)
