It's a joy to stitch on! I know sometimes we find designs and projects we have on the go a chore and we even put them aside sometimes without picking them back up for ages...but I can honestly say the projects I have stitched this year have ALL been so much fun and this one is no exception-it's just SO pretty :) YES, I am using the recommended colors :) This is where I stopped last night. I have not been home long enough today to put any stitches in-BUT I plan to sit down later and stitch, stitch, stitch :) I really hope to finish this one up this week :)
Please excuse the thread -I didn't even realize it when I was taking the photo :)

It's beautiful! The punch needle pieces will be great too!
Lovely work, and nice punch needles, too!
I do so hate it when a piece you want to love becomes a chore. So glad to hear you're on a roll with loving your stitching!
That little birdy is looking soooooo cute!
Becky,
Great progress! i really think the alphabet adds to the piece. The bird looks even lovelier with the letters around him.
I love how your Feather your Nest is looking and coming along
This is just beautiful Becky. I love the addition of the alphabet and your linen choice looks amazing with the colors. My coworkers in the office have ooohed and ahhhed over it. You sure are a stitching machine.
Those punch needle designs are so pretty. I look forward to seeing you work on them.

HUGS to you.
I just love this Becky! I always tend towards the big samplers, but I really, really like this one a lot!
Love your needle punch patterns too. Something that I'll have to try one of these days!
A looooverly WIP! And Country Stitches has the best punchneedle patterns around! Get Busy!
I am loving that piece. So very nice. Great work.
Is the linen you are using by Lakeside Linens or R&R Reproductions? Love the color. Great progress!
Oh I just love the red bird. :) Fabulous wip. And I can't wait to see you work on the punch needle pieces.
Lovely!!! I love to come here and see your progress... you always inspire me Becky!!! I love punch needle pieces... but I never try it... I love all the bunnies you choose!! They really makes me want to learn punch needle!!!
Hugs

The colors just make this so pretty and that portly robin! I can't wait to see your punchneedle progress.
You are SUCH an Enabler!! This went right on my list, but... now it may have to be purchased right away, it is so gorgeous!! Thanks for sharing, it really makes us feel like we are with you--stitching buddies, so to speak! Hugs!
It sure is stitching up nicely, Becky--I do love that fat little bird :)
Can't wait to see your punchneedle creations--they each look irresistable!
I can see why you are enjoying this one so much. It really is very pretty!
You're not the only one loving this one. I think it's a fantastic stitch!
This is such a pretty design! Will have to add this one to the wish list.
happy stitching!
Lovely ! I can see why you are enjoying yourself so much :)
You have the gift of finding patterns that are so cute and lovely. And the one you are working on now will be just as wonderful. SO what will this become? A wall hanging?, pillow?

Where do you get your punchneedle designs from?
I have tried punchneedle and find it harder than it looks. Maybe I just need more patience...
So pretty!
Absolutely gorgeous Becky!
I love this piece so much - thanks for introducing me to a new (to me) designer. I'm glad you are enjoying stitching it - I'm enjoying seeing it come to life.
This is coming along a treat Becky, I see another finish in sight! I can't wait to see you progress on punch needle too, happy stitching to you.
Lovely work Becky.
A lot of hugs
I love this chubby Robin! Great project, Becky!
I just LOVE that fat little red robin!

"Feather your nest" is looking wonderful. As I type this you are probably all done with the stitching!
Looking forward to seeing your punch needle - now which one will you choose?
