Button Up Birdies 6 - Ornaments - Counted Cross Stitch Pattern - PDF Download

Collect all 12 of Cathy Jean's new monthly ‘Button-up Birdies’, and by Christmas your Tree will be covered with these adorable ornaments! The eleventh in the series, a wee little September Gold Crowned Kinglet is sitting on a rust coloured sunflower with leaves turning all colours above it’s wee head. The twelfth Birdie is a Nuthatch, beautiful colours to match the fall season. Playful and friendly, they hungrily eat all the nuts at our feeder as the season gets colder. These birdies are so cute and colourful, you can't help but think of warmer weather. All Button-up Birdie ornaments are quick and easy to stitch so you can use them for other gifts as well. They are designed with gentle overdyed cottons and many different silks in soft shades. Stitch the dozen and use them in a quilt or wall hanging! Finish the way you see, or use your own imagination!

Collect ALL TWELVE.. and enjoy your Aviary Tree this Christmas!
