Flock of Flickers

 

Design - "Frosty Valentine" (Black Sheep kit)
Designer - Ewe & Eye & Friends
Fabric - 32 count Cameo Rose linen
Fibers - Anchor - 1 strand over 2 threads
Started - 1 February 2008
Completed - 25 February 2008

I think this older finish is the perfect one to share as we transition from February to March as it continues to be cold and threaten to snow.  A snowman with a heart on his hat and a banner "for you".


I continue to see as many as seven Flickers in the morning.
Here's one of the guys... 

And a gal...

And another guy.

A group of three - two guys and a gal.


A great woodpecker day as I once again got to see a Red-breasted Sapsucker. 

I can't get over that bright red head.

I got a couple of nice profile photos.

You can even see the bit of red on the breast that gives the bird its name.

  1. Lovely linen color and beautiful stitching.
    February was a crazy weather month. We had everything, from very cold to 70's, snowflakes, rain, thunder and wind, so much wind. Still not a lot of snow but there is still March to come. Cut my clematis back yesterday. The old growth from last year had already fresh two-inch-long new growth.
