Spring Stamp- A Spring Freebie and a Stamp Parade

Welcome, my dear friends. The other day I was sitting on the porch  stitching my heart away listening to the songs and chatter of the birds below me.

 I looked over the edge of the porch and   counted 20 birds fluttering around 2 feeders. There were doves, chickadees and lots of cardinals. 

As I sat on the porch, a doe walked around the corner of the house - not 15 feet  from me. She sauntered down to the garage to see what Mr. Pinker was doing. As she slowly made her way, I sleeked back into the house for my camera and as I sleeked back out , BUMMER ! Mr. Pinker came out of the garage and Mrs. Doe went back up the hill . No  deer photo today.  So I resumed listening to the chatter of the birds.

I also worked on a new stitch-   another stamp stitch . This one is simply called Spring Stamp. 

 This little stamp has a little Eastern Bluebird pulling a wagon of blooms. 

 Now this little bluebird could easily be changed to a robin. 

 I stitched this little stamp on 14 count aida and since it only measures 35 x35 that brought it to a mere  2 1/2" squares. 

                

In fact, I stitched it in just a couple of hours. 

You could have this done lickety split. If you are interested , just check out the links below.

I thought it would be fun to have a Stamp Parade where we look back at some of the stamps I have stitched and shared . It is a short parade.

I do  have more stamps in my future. My mind is whirling with ideas.  

Since it is a warm sun shiny day, I think I will plop myself on the porch , pull off my shoes so my toes can bask in the sun and stitch . I am going to take my camera out too and keep an eagle eye  out for Mrs. Doe. Her and the other ladies come into the yard quite often to visit.  

Thank you so much for the sweet visit , my friends . Have a beautiful day and as always...

Happy stitching, ya'll
