I forgot how fast I can stitch these blocks up! I finished Birdie Stitch Block 12 today:
I focused on just red and green fabrics for the block, given the Christmas theme.

Thought I would also share a picture of the back of the block, just for grins.
Per the instructions, I use the entire 6 strands of embroidery floss to do the backstitching. For this block, I used exactly one of those small $1 skeins of DMC floss – Red Color 666 (or 999 if you prefer).
Last block to be designed today. I am substituting for the June block with a variation of a signature block. Once done – I can start to play with the layout options. That will certainly be the toughest part of this quilt project I think!
Hope your weekend is going well! Thanks for stopping by!
