Homespun Towels 2 - Counted Cross Stitch Pattern - PDF Download

“No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.” - Aesop
"Never underestimate the power of a kind word or deed” - Anonymous

This cute little Yellow Warbler is feeding the little one a morsel, giving us an example of a loving act of kindness. There are adorable button blossoms on the branches. The House Sparrow is bringing a flower to his new companion in their own tiny bird house! All the birds show us how it’s done. Both designs are lovely all on their own, but they really come alive on a homespun towel. - Cathy
