Baby Birds: Seasons Cross Stitch Kit by VDV M-0415

Four seasonal vignettes of fluffy little bluebirds: perched on apple blossom in spring, among red berries in summer, on a red fly agaric mushroom in autumn, and on a snowy pine branch with cones in winter.

Why this kit: four seasons in one design, each with its own little bird; stitched on grey 16 count Aida for a soft, elegant background; everything needed to finish is in the box, from pre-selected DMC floss to a digital copy of the chart.

Kit includes: 100% cotton 16 count Aida in grey, 100% cotton DMC floss in 40 colors, a Pony needle, a black-and-white printed chart with the backstitch shown in color, and a digital copy of the pattern. Finished size: 30x32 cm (11.81x12.6 in). Made in Ukraine.

Counted cross stitch is worked by following the chart and its symbol key, placing each cross in its marked square on the Aida with the matching floss color, then adding the backstitch outlines shown in color on the chart.

A rewarding project for bird lovers and a sweet year-round decoration.
