Next cross stitch...



Here's what I've moved on to - it's not big, so I have hopes it will be done before winter is gone (at the moment, it feels like it will never go!). I also have the other seasons as well, so Spring may come quite soon in the stitching rota.

I grabbed a piece of linen to do this one, but it's 30 count and I'm finding that very tiny - I can see it ok, it's just FIDDLY. Here you can see some snow, and the outline of where the bird will be...

Very cute! Is it on over-dyed linen? I have to use a Q-Snap for anything 28 ct. and higher. It makes it easier to stitch and my stitches turn out more even. Have fun!

It makes my eyes cross to even see this on the screen. I cannot imagine doing such fine work. Good for you! Maybe not so good for your eyes either. :)

I can appreciate that this is hard to see. I could never do it myself as my eye sight is not that good. I am sticking to quilting.

Wow, 30 count that's tiny. Your stitching is so neat, mine would be all over the place on a count that small!
