Happy Monday.
I picked up a small cross stitch kit from Spotlight for $3.00, I thought even if I don't stitch the design there is no way I could purchase the Aida cloth and thread for that price.
Last month I stitched the design which is on 14 count Aida, lovely and big to see. No need to use the magnifying glass. I did leave out some stylized back stitching which said "With love from me to you."
Instead...
I made up a fabric envelope for secrets to hide in.
I made it all into a 18 inch square cushion. I had previously purchased a metre of each of the Bird fabric's from Spotlight.
Happy days.

Very clever. I like it!
What a lovely idea and great fabric.
When I saw your title I thought there was a secret message hidden in that post somewhere. In that cute little envelope I bet. I know you're teasing about something!

That is a lovely little cross stitch and it looks great in the cushion!
Love the idea of the fabric envelope, too.
I love birds, and this design seem simple to make. Guess spotlight has some great sale going at the moment. And is that design my namesake?
Thanks Bev for dropping by. Hope you had a wonderful weekend.
