Nashville 2022 Market release!

Barb's Birds came about as a way to honor Barb Adams of Blackbird Designs. As most of you will know, Barb passed away the morning of July 4, 2021 after a short battle with esophageal cancer. One half of my proceeds from the sale of this chart will be donated to the esophageal cancer research work at Johns Hopkins University. The birds in this piece are from samplers from many parts of the globe, England, Mexico, Scotland, Belgium, France. But the little redwing blackbird in the upper left-hand corner, that one is just for Barb.

The stitch count is 71 x 108.

Model was stitched on 40 count Vintage Navy Bean hand dyed linen from Lakeside Linen and stitched with hand dyed threads from The  Gentle Art and Classic Colorworks. A conversion to DMC is given in the chart.
