Birdy Bowl

This was inspired by the traditional sampler motif of the "berry bowl" but I've filled my basket with birds and eggs! The bowl itself is more like a woven nest, to continue the theme (and give stitchers a chance to play with variegated floss).

The model is stitched on 40 count "Hazelwood" linen from Fiber On A Whim. Stitch count is 128 x 75. The model was stitched by Chris Canaday and the finishing was done by Vonna (The Twisted Stitcher).
