Still loving Jack's Rum linen color - so rich and deep. Also this funky color pallet is striking. Who has ever seen a white acorn with blue twirls? Still, it works.
How about a look at some of BBBs - Basic Brown Birds.
A Fox Sparrow
A Golden-crowned Sparrow

Oregon Junco...
Frances at Symphony of Stitches in Mississippi has just started to feed and observe her backyard birds. This Junco is a good bird for her to look at as 'my' Oregon Junco has very different coloring than...
...the Dark-eyed Junco she observed in Mississippi!
Here's a Song Sparrow.
A Pine Siskin.
And for a touch of color, a Steller's Jay and a blue, blue sky.
You are quite right Beth. This finish is striking. I like it a lot!
ReplyDeleteWay to go on getting your Acorn finished! I really like the colors in this one and they really pop on the fabric. Lovely bird pictures!
ReplyDeleteThe colors on that acorn stitch are beautiful! Very pretty!!
ReplyDeleteI am really enjoying my birds! And I love seeing the differences in coloring across the country! So interesting!!!
Love the Acorn finish Beth. And I always love your bird photos. RJ
ReplyDeleteBasic brown can be so lovely when it comes to birds!!! I do love that little acorn!
ReplyDeleteThe color palette on this really is unusual, but it works--such a cute finish!
ReplyDeleteSeeing your lovely finish just reminds me I have a LOT of finishing yet to do! After reading and replying to blogs, that is next on my list! In my SPARE time of course! Really gotta get moving on Christmas tho... :) Love all the feathered friends! Hugs!
