Armchair Ornithologist Cross Stitch Pattern by Lindy Stitches Bird Crush Club

Armchair Ornithologist cross stitch pattern.  This pattern features all twelve species of the first year of the Bird Crush Club.  It's like a can-you-find-it picture puzzle!  I created this thinking about how much we loved learning about birds from the comfort of our stitching chairs.  Boy I'd love to have a Long-Eared Owl on my chair arm while I stitch (I think! ha ha).  When stitched on 32 count linen or 16 count aida, it fits perfectly into a standard 8 x 10 for easy finishing.
