hello tree

So, I did most of the tree trunk. Took me forever, but it looks cool....so yea. :)

I'm gonna go stitch birdie #2 now! How many birdies will there be? ;)

world cup! :D yeayeayea!

Stitching while watching soccer is awesomeness... best part is, if I missed watching a goal because I had my eyes on my needle, there's always replay >:] (Go Spain!)

The birdie is so cute, except I have never seen a bluebird with a yellow tummy before...

But hey! They must exist somewhere, right? :)

This is for you Susie! :D

HAPPY EARLY BIRTHDAY SUSIE! you, me...FRIIEEENDS :D (christine: you, 2....RETAAARDS)

So the picture on the top is when I finished cross-stitching. The one of the bottom is after I added the finishing touches (bird's eyes and pine needles). The finishing touches are actually the most time-consuming things. The problem is that I had everything nice and tight when it was tightened on the loom, but once I take it off, the cloth loosens so the threads were all saggy and stuff. D: Had to redo it, grrr... The bird's eyes french knots, which I find to be quite fun to make :D
