Plum Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 That's beautiful must have taken ages. Better do yourself one now. Someone posted a site on here that had chicken patterns for lots of breeds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sammiboo Posted March 5, 2011 Author Share Posted March 5, 2011 thank you plum ive just browsed through the thread and have some ideas I bought this kit last year and not had the ooomph to start it yet again this is for the same friend. she has chickens and a canal boat and has everything. I know she loves cross stitch but as she has a trigger thumb she cant do it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sammiboo Posted November 6, 2011 Author Share Posted November 6, 2011 i started this cross stitch in january but in february i got my chickens so my spare time was taken up elsewhere ive decided as the nights have drawn in i should really get my needle back out and finish it.... This is an african grey - a present for my mum... week 1 week 2 week 3 week 4 The pattern 9 a4 sheets. I had completed half of one sheet This is the most boring pattern i have ever done LOL lots of different shades of grey... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 It'll be wonderful when done. I've got a UFO of three black cats -they are never going to get finished Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
