As I don't want to bore you with more boring border progress, I've decided to go back in time to a post from 2010. Enjoy.
There are new bird photos below...
Design - "Alphabet Bunny"
Pamphlet - "The Bunny Collection"
Designer - JBW Designs
Fabric - 28 count Antique White Cashel
Floss - DMC
Started - 27 June 2010
Completed - 9 July 2010
While this pattern required lots of color changes - a little light green, then a small dark green letter, then more light green - it was a fun stitch. The designer included a micro pattern of cabbages, and I added that to the bottom of my bunny.
I had the perfect dark green Pine Mountain pillow insert at hand.
The bird and the bunny garden ornaments approved!
All in all, a successful stitch - there are four more bunny patterns in this series - I think the pink Gingham Bunny is calling out my name!
We've been pretty heavy with Anna's Hummingbirds lately.
The Rufuos are more bashful, so it was nice to have a pair stop by on Easter.
Here is the handsome copper-colored male.

He arrived at the feeder first and then perched on the porch watching...
Then the female arrived and had a bite to eat.
The female Rufuos is easily mistaken as an Anna's - but she has brown tail feathers and brown chest feathers mixing among iridescent green.

Your header is so pretty. I''m glad I dropped by before it changes.
We have seen a lot of hummingbird activity this year as well. I'm buzzed regularly!
I always love seeing those hummingbirds upclose :D
I think I have asked you this before but how do you do your header picture, what do you use?
Thank You
So beautiful..
Your stitching and header and very sweet photos.
Hugs x
The bunny finish is cute.
I love seeing your hummingbirds. The brown colour of the male Rufuos is one I haven't seen before. Very nice!
Phew.....I just finished going through all if your posts that I was behind on...I always enjoy your adventures stitches and beautiful nature photos ~ thanks for sharing!
Precious alphabet bunny! So sweet! And I love the bird photos! I love beautiful birds--always have. This may seem odd, but I have one smallish box that I keep bird feathers in, when I find them. I think they are so lovely and pretty to look at!
Ah hummingbirds! I do love them so! Love that rabbit and the pillow finish for it. Love those ones that you just insert, so easy.
I love these JBW designs, they are simple and effective too.
I stitched the cat one several times last year, one for each month!
The copper colored male is quite handsome!
Love your bunny! Amazing hummingbird pictures Beth! Have a great week.
Great hummingbird pics! That copper colored male is awesome. Your Alphabet Bunny is lovely!
