"Do you have a small bird cross stitch pattern?" my visitors to the site have been asking me. I had designed quite a few over the years, as part of my Little Ones cross stitch kit range, so I have put 14 of them together in an ebook for you.
You will need 8 colours or fewer for each design, making them ideal cross stitch patterns for beginners. You will not find any fractional stitches in these mini projects either.
In case you haven't tried cross stitch before, I have also included full instructions for how to work this type of embroidery.
Each page contains a full colour photograph of the cross-stitched bird, along with the chart and a key that tells you which coloured threads to use. Of course, you don't have to use the exact colours that I did. You can substitute any similar colour from your leftover threads, as each design will only need a small amount. An ideal way to use up your stash.
I have also included details of the finished size of each pattern if you stitch it on 14 count Aida. If you want to use a different fabric, you can use my handy cross stitch calculator, which will work out for you what size it will turn out. 🦉
Included in the book are the following cross stitch birds...
