Cedar Wax Wing

I just checked Tereena Clarke's Artecy Cross Stitch and she has a beautiful free download up for grabs. I am partial to birds so naturally I really like this one, but I think you will too! It makes me want to get back to stitching! See it HERE.
She also has a cute Santa so you have a whole year to do that one. Have fun.

Lay's Potato Chip

Sometimes it is difficult to take a good snapshot of something in a photo frame.  I snapped this view of a project that I completed way back when I was learning to cross stitch.  It is not the first, because as I said earlier on the blog that the barns were my first stitched projects.  This may be my second one, I don't remember for sure but it is somewhere in there as one of my first.

Free Charts

I found this chart while browsing through the magazine Classic Stitches web site. There are several pretty free charts there to download. They will be within the stitching zone drop down button across the top of the page. I found this one listed in the flowers-fruit category and thought it was pretty enough to share.
The design is worked throughout in cross stitch and back stitch.
