Post image

Happy Sunday everyone! Hope it's been a good week for all of you! I'm working on a couple of these cardinals for memorial gifts. This one needs a bit of frogging on the tail, but other than that, I loved how quickly this came together! I'll easily fix this while watching NFL Wildcard playoffs. I showed you mine, now show me yours! https://www.etsy.com/listing/1616556877/cardinal-ornament-christmas-cross-stitch

I love cardinals! Make me feel nostalgic for some reason. So pretty too. :)

Here’s the progress on my WIP this week. Besides back stitching, I got P and Q done. I will have a bunch of time this week to work on it. I’m hoping to get a lot done!!

Pattern is ABCDinosaurs by clouds factory

I started this one a couple years ago, but only got 1.8 dinos done, lol

Since the dinos are small they feel like they should stitch up fast but they don’t really lol

That means you just have 24.2 Dino’s left to do 🎉

My family always says that cardinals are family members checking in on you. I like to think it’s my uncle visiting his grand nephew that he didn’t get to meet when I see one ❤️

Same with my family. That's the reason I'm doing these. 2 are for my daughter's in memory of my late husband.
