Air Mail August #8 Ringed Teal Cross Stitch Pattern by Lindy Stitches

 Air Mail August is #8 in the series, featuring the Ringed Teal.  This adorable duck struck my fancy, and since August is my birthday month, I decided to do a retro color palette.  He turned out just perfect!

About the series:  The Air Mail series will be releasing throughout 2024 and finish in 2026.  The entire series will feature a bird stamp of the same dimensions on the same fabric.
