My favorite color is purple and I like the whimsical colors of the Dove. The design makes me think of my brother who was a Mailman.
Stitching this now, so fun! Wish I would have bought the finishing pack, won't make that mistake again, I'm buying everything when it all comes out for the next bird!
I have the first 2 in this series! So cute! How many will be in this series?
WOW this piece is so so very pretty...looking forward to Stitching this soon.🇺🇸🪡🧵🫶❤️
The turtle dove is beautiful—his wing is the prettiest ever! Loved stitching this colorful design and am totally looking forward to stitching the remaining stamps! Thank you, Steph, for such a delightful project!
