A stitchery....

....I'm working on.
It is a Bird Brain Design pattern
called 'Here Comes Santa'. 

block one.....is finished

P8270922

and block two is finished

P8270921

I'm using DMC Perle cotton #8.....it is working out better than I thought 
and am using the back stitch.
I still prefer the outline stitch but I am getting faster with the backstitch 
and I must say I do like the finished blocks!!

Visit Bird Brain Design's online shop .
Robin has a lot of awesome stitchery patterns....
she even has a new freebie for back to school!!
in fact she has lots of freebies.

Visit Robin's blog and tell her Pauline sent you....

Bird Brain Design pattern!!

Hugs and Happy Stitching!!
