Beautiful Things Cross Stitch Pattern by Lindy Stitches

Beautiful Things Cross Stitch Pattern by Lindy Stitches. Celebrate the beauty of the old, the imperfect, the heirloom with my 2020 May bird sampler. I fell in love with this poem by Brent @writtenbyhim on Instagram, who graciously gave me permission to use it. I chose to use gorgeous Picture This Plus linen and Classic Colorworks overdyed flosses, but you can stitch this one whatever is in your stash. In fact, according to the sentiment you should feel free to use your oldest, loveliest materials! For you stitchy ornithologists, the bird featured is a female crimson chat. Isn't she the sweetest?.
