Free Twirly Birdy Needlework Pattern
My first (of hopefully many, but we’ll see!) free needlework pattern is up and ready to be put on anything you fancy!
Pictured is my version of the twirly birdy, I wanted to add more colour to the outline so double threaded some pink in with black, and I must say it looks pretty good. I also chain stitched the legs to add a bit more bulk. It wasn’t placed onto anything special, just a piece of cotton, but I have a feeling I might sneak the fabric into a quilt some time in the near future, maybe hidden away on a pieced back as a little surprise.

I like how you used the pink and black floss together. I have to try that now. Thanks for sharing your pattern!
