Once upon a time I used to stitch big designs!  
Make that big and bright designs.

Love the bright crayola crayon colors and the directive to "Be Merry...or else!" I think I need to get this one framed some day. 

I'm featuring some of my Little Birds today.

  5. That is certainly a colorful piece! I like it! I have been feeding the White-throated Sparrows in my back yard when it snows, which has been twice so far, and maybe two more times in the next week! Dark-eyed Juncos join them. Love seeing the variety of small birds you have!
