Oh my! Oh my! Looky! Looky!
The one and only Coni of Spinster Stitcher fame is stitching the Zecca bird in a nest following my stitch guide! Yay, Coni!
She’s doing a fantabulous job. Of course she is; she’s a fabulous stitcher and a super fun read. Perfect for the first long weekend of the summer.
So sit back and check out her blog. If you scroll back to May 10, you will see where she picks up this fun project from her WIP pile and decides to finish it. There are daily posts showing her progress, her challenges, her dog Stewey. (Hey Stewey, hugs from Auntie Ruth)
I originally designed the guide to this canvas as a mystery class several years ago and it is still one of my most favorite pieces. You can see my progress on it here.
Signs of Spring
It’s a Clear and Sunny Day
Let the Games Begin
The Flowers are a’blooming
I Can’t Believe the Fun is Over
Our Bird Has Flown Home!
If you would like to stitch this wonderful bird, we have canvases on order and are happy to send one your way completely kitted with all the fun threads, buttons and goodies we used. Just give us a call at 410.296.0405 or order online here.
Maybe one day I will start blogging my daily stitching progress. Oh wait that means I would stitch everyday. Hmmm, gotta work on that one. Right now my life is devoted to the new app, the new website and a few other techy things. Sigh. No stitching for me since last Saturday.
Enjoy your start of summer, it’s finally stopped raining here but now it’s hot!

OH, HOLEY SCHMOLEY!!!! Ruth Schmuff just mentioned my name! This is better than if Jeffrey Dean Morgan showed up to make me waffles! Thank you for the kind words, Miss Ruth, but the fabulousness of this canvas is all you, my friend. It's all you.
Anybody contemplating adding this to your project list…just…do…it! You will have a blast from the very first moment you pick up the needle.
Thanks, Ruth (and Zecca) for such a fun ride!
Ruth – What is the ribbon you used on the nest? It's awesome and would be great for some other projects! No matter who stitches it, this is a fun piece!
Coni, I am more than flattered that you think I'm more exciting than Jeffrey Dean Morgan! What will we do without him on the Good Wife? Big hugs. Talk soon.
Hi Catherine – the ribbon for the bird's nest is vintage sari ribbon. isn't it cool?
