These two feathered friends stitching in perfect harmony are a lovely way to add folksy style to a home. Life is often about teamwork, whether it's two colleagues helping each other out, a husband and wife pulling together, or just two friends making sure one gets the crisps, and the other the wine. That's why we love this oh-sew-pretty scene, as it makes a lovely gift to show that special someone how much you appreciate all they do for you. Plus, we just can't resist its bright contemporary folkart look that's so on-trend right now! Worked on 14-count aida in whole stitches, with a scattering of backstitch to add swirls of decorative detail and easy accents for the blooms and leaves, this design is perfect for beginners looking to take on their first bigger project. Using less than 20 thread shades in fresh, zesty colours, you'll easily complete this in a couple of weeks as once you start stitching you won't be able to stop! Let these birds inspire you to pick up your needle and thread today. Stitching Time: Approx. 30 hours Type of Stitches: Cross stitch, backstitch Ease of Stitching: Beginner Shopping List: - Zweigart 14-count white aida measuring 35x30cm (13-3/4" x 11-3/4") - Stranded cotton as listed in the key - Size 24 tapestry needle - Canvas measuring 25x20cm (10" x 8") from local stores
